Premise/plot: The story is NOT lacking in this picture book starring two cats--an older cat and a kitten. Yes, the text is super-simple. But the illustrations are SO expressive, the story is communicated in just a few words per spread. 

My thoughts: I loved this one so much. It may be one of my favorite picture books of the year--so far. I have a feeling that whatever book I nominate for Cybils this year, it will likely star a cat. I highly recommend this one to cat lovers of all ages!
