"This illustrated children's book brings together every domestic cat breed in the world alongside coloured drawings of rare wild cats and the well-known big cats. It is divided into double-page spreads. The book features cat breeds from North America, Europe, Asia and the Rest of the World; the second half is devoted to the wild cats of the world, both the rarer small species and the large cats of Africa, North and South America and Asia - the Tiger, Lion, Leopard, Cheetah and Jaguar. The book also features both a charming kitten identifier and a cub identifier. And an extensive cat index gives the reader fun facts about every breed and species featured. This is a great new reference guide for all the family that will make your little children cat experts!"--

This work has three major sub-goals: first, to give a history of cats in general from earliest recorded times to the present. Second, to cover 26 different cats (or cat species) in alphabetical order, so the reader has a representative feline for each of the alphabet's 26 letters. Third, to accomplish these ends through poetry. The poetic mode was chosen to give reader a little different slant on each covered cat's special qualities and temperament. An additional prose portion gives the reader a straightforward description of each cat's natural territory and a brief coverage of its special talents and challenges. The overall goal was to make learning about cats both fun and educational and make us more fully appreciate our feline friends.

Examines the hunting and feeding habits, habitats, and physical characteristics of cats of all sizes, from the domestic pet cat to the saber-toothed tiger.

In-depth coverage reveals every aspect of lion, leopard, tiger, puma, jaguar, and cheetah life. Packed with over 180 stunning photographs. Exciting and accessible reference for use at home and school.
