| Publisher Description: "It's rare that a poem not meant for a picture book translates so smoothly into the form, but Macavity does, coming in at the perfect length with ample opportunity for illustrations to help build out the story. . . .Like Eliot's verses, Robins's illustrations] present a world of mischief and hilarity." The New York Times Macavity is one of the best-loved poems from T. S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats - the inspiration for Cats: The Musical - beloved by generations of children and their parents.In this sweet lift-the-flap board book, tiny hands can search for the ginger cat Macavity. Is he in the hen house? Or perhaps under the sofa cushions? Macavity's not there But where is Macavity? Children will squeal with delight as they try to locate that scoundrel mystery cat. |
