Summary: Siamese cat lovers....
Comment: The most exquisitely illustrated book I've ever owned! A fun, fictitious way to describe how white siamese kittens get their colors.
It's a bit long for a bed time story, but really fun! Kids ages 8 or 9 and up may be able to read it themselves, but the beginners may have a hard time.

Rating: 5
Summary: Great Little Book
Comment: This is a great little story book. I bought this especially for my niece who loves the cartoon. It's a bit long so I read it in installments before her afternoon naps and she loves it and can't wait to hear the other parts. This helps her to look forward to nap times now (phew). Although another reviewer labels it as stereotyped I think it still helps kids to learn of and tolerate lifestyles other than their own. The book does so in a simple way after all it is for kids and at that stage of life it is not harmful as they have more time to get into further details.

Rating: 5
Summary: Wonderful Children's Book!
Comment: I love Amy Tan, so I had to buy this book for my 2 year old nephew. He loves the beautiful illustrations of the cats! It is about the mother Siamese cat telling her five kittens about their Chinese heritage. She tells them the story of their ancestor Sagwa, who was a very silly and clever cat who changed a foolish magistrate's foolish laws to wise ones by using the ink to edit his laws from saying "You shall NOT sing and dance until sunset" to "You shall sing and dance until sunset." A very good lesson about the importance of heritage and the need for celebration of our lives. I highly recommend this book!
