What child doesn't like a cute cat and a great Christmas story? Well this book has got both. Go on a journey with a pussycat who loves snow and get a vivid description about how she perceives the holiday of Christmas. The illustrations are adorable and lovely and the verses are melodic.
The picture of the pussycat getting into the gift wrapping and playing with the Christmas ornaments is spot on. Anyone with a cat can picture theirs doing the same with their big black eyes ready to pounce on anything that moves or rustles. My little Emy thinks it is so neat that the cat eats snow just like her! Pussycat even catches a glimpse of Santa in his sleigh way up in the night sky. The story ends with her sleeping all curled up with a present left by Santa waiting for her when she wakes.
"For if there was anything that this little cat loved, it was the cold, dry, fresh, white, wild, and feathery, powdery snow. She went pouncing around in it, bouncing with joy. And she at some of it. And she rolled in it and dug in it and played with it."
