Description
One day in a life of a little boy and his pet cat is portrayed in this poetic picture book with dreamlike illustrations.
In this book the readers follow the actions of a little boy and his kitten in the course of one day and during this time we discover that there are more similarities between humans and animals than we would think—from sleeping and eating to playing and taking care of yourself. On each spread there is a question asking the readers about the topic concerned on the given page and making the reading experience interactive. Also, there is a little hidden object game throughout the book.
The lovely illustrations by a world-renowned Japanese artist Iku Dekune in combination with text by Czech contemporary poet Radek Maly makes the book Our Cat's Day irresistible.

That cover won my heart! And the story by Czech poet Radek Maly of a day in the life of a little boy -- contrasted to that of his kitten -- is perfect for the intended audience of children 3-6 years and the adults who love them. Plus, there are questions to answer and a search-and-find exercise that makes this fun and interactive. I especially loved the gorgeous illustrations by Japanese artist Iku Dekun. Highly recommended!

Thank you Netgalley and Albatros Media for this arc.
The illustrations are great and I like the idea of using questions to get children involved in the story. But ... a few things bothered me. Letting a cat play with a ball of yarn can be dangerous for the cat if it begins to swallow the string and I would bet some readers would be upset at the image of the cat holding the mouse in its mouth.
