Okay so the basic plot of this book is a little odd, this cat keeps getting into trouble and each time he loses one of his nine lives and we see a little ghost cat float off. That part is a little scary and a bit unsettling. BUT the illustrations are absolutely fantastic! So beautiful and whimsical and the ending of the story is very heartwarming and sweet.

Jan Brett writes a beautiful story but the true star of the show are her gorgeous illustrations. I love how the stunning art in the central picture is augmented by the secondary story being told in the images in the side bar. She is a tee master of her craft.
