Cats
|
|
What fun to pretend to be a cat - creeping, leaping, stretching and sleeping! You can have a purr-fectly furry time with cats in books and not worry about allergies! And of course, the cat family includes tigers!
Folk and fairy tales often feature animals in stories. This version of 'Little Red Riding Hood' set in China is called Auntie Tiger by Laurence Yep.
