About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is obsessed with their feline friend or constantly asking 'why' about the natural world. It is the perfect tool for a child who has recently welcomed a new pet or is showing a burgeoning interest in zoology and biology. The book transforms a common household animal into a gateway for scientific wonder, blending humor with high-interest facts that validate a child's natural curiosity. Potts delivers an engaging collection of trivia and photography that covers everything from ancient history to feline anatomy. While it is classified as a chapter book, its bite-sized facts and visual-heavy layout make it accessible for reluctant readers or those who prefer 'grazing' through information. It builds a sense of joy and gratitude for the animal kingdom while encouraging children to observe their own pets through a scientific lens.
What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is entirely secular and scientific in its approach. There are no mentions of animal cruelty or the death of pets, though it does briefly touch on cats as hunters in the wild, which is handled as a matter-of-fact biological necessity.
