A Gray Cat Wanders

★ Publishers Weekly, starred review

A Gray Cat Wanders is a charming collection of never-before-seen poems from the late Karla Kuskin, beloved author of The Philharmonic Gets Dressed and many other picture books. Here, Kuskin's unique, witty voice weaves through each poem, creating an exquisite menagerie of verses about animals both mighty and small. Meanwhile, in the art, a gray cat wanders from page to page and can be seen, sometimes hidden, throughout the book.

Here is a treasury of animal poems that, coupled with acclaimed artist Marcellus Hall's playful illustrations, will instill in young readers a sense of wonder for the critters around us.
