5 comments about 40 Most Wanted Cats.

1. This delightful book is a great gift, especially for those who understand the wild and woolly nature of the American house cat. Clever theme lines and beautiful pictures. I loved it.



2. As a crime lover and cat tolerator, I must confess I was taken by "40 Most Wanted Cats". Drosd and Weil have taken a witty idea and wonderfully illustrated it with a fascinating variety of cats as they do their nefarious deeds.

3. I returned this book immediately afetr viewing. Poor quality photos of uninteresting cats.



4. "40 Most Wanted Cats" is a witty, pictorially bold invitation to the outlaw world of cats. Anyone who has one knows that these pets don't fall into the warm and fuzzy category, but into that mysterious world of love and demand and outrage. I gave it to my mother, since she's NOT a cat lover. I thought this might bring her around. Agreat holiday gift for the animal lover in your family, the one who wants to get beyond cliches.



5. Maybe I just didn't get it, but this book did not amuse me. It looked like someone took regular family photos of their cats, sporadically painted parts of the backgrounds, and then added what they thought were clever titles to each photo. I just did not find the artistic or humorous qualities expected.

2 comments about Complete Idiot's Guide to Living With Cat (The Complete Idiot's Guide).

1. A gold mine of practical information--and a lot of fun stuff that I didn't know about cats. that makes good small-talk fodder when the issue of cats comes up--and knowing all this makes me evenmore glad that there's a fine cat in my life.



2. Although this book does contain some useful tips on cat care, I found that at least a third of the book was devoted to cat trivia and cute cat facts, including an entire chapter on famous cats through history. While these chapters are entertaining, I was looking for more basic information. The practical "how to" type information that I expected from a "complete guide" was far too brief and general.

3 comments about Importance of Being Oscar.

1. Love this book! I found it in a museum store and fell in love and bought it immediately. Oscar is a cat who brings to life quotes from another favorite Oscar. You'll surely find some favorite pages and smile.



2. These engaging tales are well translated and are a good introduction to Japanese folk literature. The spectacular treat of this book is the illustration. Naoko Matsubara is a brilliant woodblock artist. Her powerful pictures breathe authenticity into the not quite believeable, miraculous tales. Her powerful lines and radiant colors illuminate the stories carrying them into a transendient sphere .



3. This book has truly charming (not "cute," but very cat-like) line drawings of a cat, accompanied by quotations from Oscar Wilde that are very apposite for a cat. It's a perfect gift for occasions when you don't want JUST a card, but a full-scale book or other present is too much. I've probably given away 10 copies in the past few years, and can think of another 10 possible recipients. (Plus, it's fun to have around for yourself)
