review 1: Complete with boxes to open and balls of yarn to throw, "There Are Cats in This Book" is fully interactive. Young readers will enjoy following the cats' directions and learning about the life of these feline creatures. The interactive component of this book stood out to me, and I know PreK-2nd graders will be captivated by the chance to manipulate the book.

review 2: After wandering through this book, I immediately checked who had it. I ordered it as part of the Opening Day Collection for a new branch in our system. After congratulating myself for my brilliance, I immediately shot off an email to the person buying picture books suggesting she
... more buy more copies if possible, if only for the New Main library opening next year. This book is just utterly charming! The person who recommended it to me said she had a child who was so entranced by the book, she came and stood right in front of it. I would have been tempted to join the little girl! There are 3 cats who speak directly to the audience. They ask if you are a nice person and if you want to play with them. They then proceed to play with strings and boxes, etc. After they are all worn out they look for their blankets to take a nap. This description really gives no idea of how delightful a story this book is. There are little pop ups and cut out pages throughout the book. It is made from strong paper. Our copy still looks in excellent shape. In any case, the buyer for picture books is as charmed as I was and we'll be picking up a few more copies if at all possible! It has been a long time since I found a book so magical in its simplicity and happiness! less

Any cat book is a-okay with us. Very engaging for both a 7 year old and almost-three year old.

Students will love the special pages to turn and interact with the story.
