A wonderful collection of comic tales, told in an engaging comic strip format style, about the lovable but dopey cat, Boots.

More than an ordinary picture book. * The Times *
Witty, full of detail, and the cats' moonfaces are surprisingly expressive. * The Bookseller *
Kitamura is one of the most distinctive of modern children's writers and illustrators. With a striking, accessible style, the illustrations perfectly complement these humorous philosophical tales. * Publishing News *
Brilliant * The School Librarian *
