A Kitten's Year
by
Nancy Raines Day (Goodreads Author),
Anne Mortimer
Peeking, pawing, and pouncing, a curious kitten spends its first year exploring the sights, sounds, and smells of the world around it.
The simple text and exquisite, detailed illustrations in this beautiful book of months capture the cozy and distinctly feline moments of a kitten as it grows, season, by season, into a cat.

I love Anne Mortimer's cat artwork! Sooo cute--makes me wish all the pictures would come-to-life so I could pet each of these adorable kittens! :-) The story itself is cute enough, but nothing substantial... The kitten "Spooks October" or "Dreams December" -- that's all, it is more a backdrop for the great artwork. Recommended if you love Mortimer's artwork.

simple story -- two words per page
'spooks october' is the only dislike (can't he crunch pretty leaves instead??)

A sweet, quick read about the year in the life of a kitten.
Beautiful illustrations!!!
Nice illustrations about a cat growing through the months.
