review 1: If you love Maru, you will love this book.If you love cats, but don't know who Maru is, you will like this book...and then check out the Maru video clips on YouTube and then love the book.I liked how the text and captions were in both Japanese and English. They are brief, and gentle with their humour. It was especially nice to find out some background to Maru the cat and what he is like to live with, beyond what we see in the videos, of course.The photos themselves made me laugh, smile and say 'awww'. I showed this book to a few cat loving coworkers and they loved it. Some had not heard of Maru before and ended up greatly amused when they checked out the videos. Hello, new Maru fans!I just found out that there is a second Maru book out! Must track ... moredown!
review 2: Maru is a four year old Scottish Fold cat, in spite of his traditional, upright cat "prick-ears". He and his owner live in Japan. The name "Maru" means "round". When his owner adopted him as a kitten, she felt that everything about him seemed round. The book is written as if Maru is talking and his owner, as well. It is written in both English and Japanese. Following life with Maru, from kittenhood through the present day, there are numerous photos. We see Maru's many expressions and moods as he shares his likes, dislikes, and habits. There are pages of still shots from his videos, including the famous "sliding into boxes" videos. Maru also shares his favorite toys, costumes and "behind the scenes" information. Maru is already a worldwide sensation through his many online videos and blog. This book is destined to be a classic among cat lovers. I am definitely hoping for sequels. You just have to love a good pet book, especially one with adorable photos and captions! less
