Reviews

"The Kate Greenaway Medal winner has a riot with counting and colours" -- Alex O'Connell, The Times
"Hilarious fun, an adorable book, perfect on so many levels!" -- Louise Ellis Barrett, Armadillo
Gorgeous artwork, hard-working words -- Alex O'Connell * The Times *
For cat-loving young children - and who isn't - 10 Cats will be a treat. Unlike most learn-to-count books, this has umpteen cats on each page and the reader must identify the six cats with yellow dots or the seven with green splotches. Good fun. -- Melanie McDonagh * Evening Standard *
