Sara Swan Miller has worked with children most of her adult life. She has two children, four step-children, and a grandcat named Henry (who inspired this book). Now she devotes herself to writing mostly children's books. She lives in High Falls, New York.
True Kelley has illustrated many books for children, including Stay! Keeper's Story by Lois Lowry. She lives with children's author Steven Lindblom and their daughter, Jada, in Warner, New Hampshire.
Gr. 1-3. In this sequel to Three Stories You Can Read to Your Cat (1997), Miller explains that the reason cats sleep so much may be that they don't know how to read. She offers witty stories for children to read aloud to their pets. The first tale concerns the birthday of a cat that is alternately bored, scared, and disgusted by its presents but thoroughly entertained by the wrapping paper. In the second, the cat is desperately anxious to get outside to explore the white flakes falling from the sky, then desperately anxious to get inside and away from the cold, wet snow. The third looks at life from the point of view of a nocturnal animal in a diurnal household. Just as precise and more overtly funny than the stories are Kelley's brightly colored ink-and-wash illustrations, which capture feline postures, attitudes, and expressions to perfection. Another excellent book in a consistently entertaining series. Carolyn Phelan
