Synopsis
Five darling kittens are lovingly cared for by a mama and papa cat as they in turn care for their toy mouse. It's cream and porridge for breakfast, fish soup for lunch, and then baths, naps, chores, and plenty of play to fill the day until bedtime, when five sleepy kittens tuck in their toy mouse and snuggle into bed. Simple, soothing verse and luminous illustrations that fill the page join here to create a delightfully cozy original nursery rhyme.

From Publishers Weekly
Jewell's (Sailor Song) cozy, lilting text traces a day in the lives of five winsome kittens. The sleepy quintet begins each morning standing in line as their mother bathes each "with her rough, pink tongue," and ends the day as their parents give them "five kisses,/ and [turn] out the light." Like a lullaby, the tone of the verse is snug and homey, and the day depicted is filled with familiar chores. The kittens model their parents' behavior with their toy mouse, feeding him "a toy fish bun/ in his little toy house" and tucking him into bed. Sayles's (Millions of Snowflakes) pastel illustrations with their sloe-eyed felines are full of warm fuzzies. The kittens lick their whiskers, loll comfortably in their parents' laps and rub their muzzles under their parents' feet. A clock indicates their 9:00 a.m. wake-up call and their noon meal, and each whiskered character exhibits a distinct personality (e.g., a charcoal gray kitten with white markings falls asleep at breakfast and slacks off on the chores). As a bedtime soother, this leisurely paced, gentle rhyme may well induce the desired catnap. Ages 2-6. (Aug.)
