Publisher Description
This whimsical collection of twenty cat-approved life lessons for living your purrfect life is accompanied by gorgeous, lushly detailed paintings.
Miss Marcella Mink and sixty-seven of her favorite feline friends live happily in her big house by the sea. But there was a time when Miss Mink was not so happy. When Miss Mink created her own business -- a feline-friendly cruise company for cat lovers and their furry companions -- she found she no longer had time or energy for herself or her friends. For advice she turned to her cats, who always seemed so happy, healthy, well-rounded, well-groomed and well-rested. It was not long before the Cat Countess was feeling shipshape again. Collected here are Miss Mink's twenty cat-approved lessons, from the benefits of a good grooming and an afternoon nap to valuable advice on friendship and diet.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In Miss Moon: Wise Words from a Dog Governess, Hill introduced an elegant governess with a host of canine companions. In the sequel, readers meet Miss Mink, who lives in a house by the sea with 67 cats and offers sage advice for bountiful living, self-care, and savoring precious moments. "Be a little mysterious," she suggests, pictured face-to-face with the Mona Lisa, a cat on each shoulder. Standing beneath a large, red umbrella with her "clowder of cats" ensures that she will "never let a few raindrops spoil the day," and, aboard The Cat's Meow, of her "feline-friendly cruise company," she encourages readers to "let your curiosity lead you to exciting new places." Hill's sumptuous art is infused with a 1920s-era glamour, particularly evident in the cat countess's lush wardrobe of flapper dresses, scarves, and fur dusters. Being a cat lady has never been more divine. Ages 4 8.
