It is much too abstract for a children's book. My 7-yr old was very disappointed and frustrated, despite my explanations of what the book was trying to describe.

Wonderful, highly detailed and realistic illustrations are paired with haiku-like poetry on the subject of cats.

Beautiful pictures. Too wordy.
