Some books make you wonder what the publishing process and atmosphere in the publishing house was like when they decided to go ahead with such a cute idea for a book! This is one of those books! Hard to take seriously, which I guess, is the point! 🤣 If you are, or have, a flabby feline, this book is for you!! 😹

P.S. @aquila_reads bought this book at a charity shop in Keighley, UK, for £0.10 (about SGD $0.17)!

My rating: 3/5

I really wanted to like this. I stumbled across it in amongst some children's books and snapped it up because I just adore cats. The pictures were prettily done for the most part but flawed conceptually - as was the book itself. I was looking forward to seeing some drawings of cats in stretches they actually do. It's not like they don't stretch - my cat does plenty of yoga poses, and much better than me to boot! But that wasn't what this book had. Instead it consists of humanised drawings of cats doing human exercises at the gym and in poses that cats are never in. And I just didn't find that funny.
