Summary: But the cat came back the very next day
Comment: There's a vast range of books you can use to introduce a small child to the concept of having a new little sibling. Some books speak directly to this need, focusing on sibling relations. Others, like "Ginger", tell a story from an entirely different point of view. A distinctly feline one at that.
Ginger is a pampered happy orange tabby. When his normal routines are upset by a new grey kitten, Ginger is incensed. In a fit of pique Ginger leaves home. It is only when the little girl who owns the cats gives each animal his own space (separate food dishes, separate sleeping spaces, etc.) that Ginger and the little grey truly start to get along. The book speaks as much to parents as it does to children. In short, you cannot just throw two people (or animals) together without giving each their own space at first. If the story is charming (and it is, it is), then the illustrations match it perfectly. Voake has a wonderful grasp of cat positions and attitudes. When Ginger is curled up in his cat hamper with one paw placed gently across his eyes, he is both adorable and entirely cat-like. Likewise the kitten's playful attack on Ginger's tail is perfectly drawn. If you're searching for either a good introduction-to-a-new-sibling book or just a cute kitty story, "Ginger" is sure to please either way.

Summary: Just like at home.
Comment: I bought this for my little girl after she bought a little black kitten that terrorized our older yellow cat. It's a great book about getting along with others.
Rating: 5
Summary: Fun to read and listen to
Comment: This was bought as a gift for my son, and now it's one of our favorite books (well, he's only 8 months, but my husband and I love it). The illustrations are charming -- not always very realistic, but very expressive. ...
