Wild cats, tame cats, alley cats, barn cats--all kinds of cats fill
the pages of this science picture book for younger readers. It grew
out of years spent by the author in studying cats and keeping them
as pets. The physical characteristics of cats, their instincts and
habits are described and explained. There is an interesting section
on how to play with a kitten or cat, what kind of den to construct
and directions for making it. There are rules for raising healthy,
happy cats--how to feed them, keep their quarters clean, and train
them. In the last part of the book, the author takes up the whole
cat family--lions, tigers, cheetahs, and their cousins--and he ends
with a brief history of our pets as we know them today. The amusing
and informative pictures on every page not only illustrate the
text, but provide a wealth of additional information. Younger
children will find endless entertainment in the pictures, and there
is no age limit to those who will enjoy the informal, authentic
text. Wilfrid Swancourt Bronson wrote his first book at the age of
eight. Called "Animal People," it started like this: "This book is
for children who are interested in animals and birds. It has verey
good pictures in it and children can understand it verey easily."
He later learned to spell, and wrote and illustrated over twenty
books for children with "verey good pictures" that they could
understand. Young readers everywhere are glad he did.
