Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a delightful journey into the world of mischievous kittens. Through a series of charming and often humorous vignettes, the author explores the playful, curious, and sometimes troublesome nature of these tiny creatures. The poems in the book are reminiscent of the Victorian… eraââ â¢s love for anthropomorphized animal characters, particularly in children's literature. Through the eyes of the kittens, the author explores themes of childhood innocence, the joys and frustrations of learning, and the importance of kindness and understanding. The playful rhymes capture the essence of kitten-like behaviour, from their energetic antics to their insatiable curiosity. The reader is invited to delight in the antics of the playful kittens, while also reflecting on the universal themes of childhood and the importance of embracing our playful side. The book's insights into the world of kittens, and the lessons they teach about life, are sure to resonate with readers of all ages. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.

Soft cover. Condition: Fair. This is an unusual saddle-stitched (cloth) booklet with four internal colour engravings of the Three White Kittens (Tiny, Tittens and Tit). The pictures are certainly cute but in a very realistic way - perhaps suggesting that the unnamed illustrator was either familiar with cats or, if not, an extrem…ely capable artist. As well as absence of the illustrator's name, there is also no published reference to the author. Two of them (illustrating the Merry Kitten and the Greedy Kitten poems) appear to be printed on cloth-backed paper. The other two are printed on the front and rear pastedowns (presumed to be card) - this time illustrating the Cross Kitten and the Frightened Kittens (DEAR! Oh dear! a dog is near!). Each poem references an air - e.g. the air for the Merry Kitten is Roast Beef of Old England. Condition (external): tanning is visible on both the upper and lower (card) covers; especially at and near the booklet's edges. In addition, the card near the stitching along the spine is quite frayed in places. Condition (internal): again the tanning is obvious (with occasional foxing) especially on the pages featuring the poems. The better news is that the images are less affected; especially those printed on the above-mentioned cloth-back sections. Unpaginated. Undated. 8vo. Please note that, depending on destination, we may request a payment to cover any extra shipping & postage charges. Proceeds to Amnesty International. Abe2619.
