**Bundle Up & Save On Postage** 7 X 10" 129 pages Price sticker remains on front cover, very slight shelf wear, otherwise without flaw. Seventy-five poems about cats written by the greatest poets of England, American, Greece, France, Arabia, and Japan shows that poets usually had one purpose in mind when they wrote about cats : to praise them. The black and white cat watercolor paintings by Alan Daniel are simply outstanding.
