Mr Pusskins Feelings
by Sam Lloyd
Lloyd's humorous, lively illustrations of the grumpy ginger cat vividly show us the range of emotions we might have when faced with a splendid celebration cake which is accidentally ruined.
Just as Mr P is about to eat it, his old irritant Little Whiskers falls onto it, ruining the appearance but, thankfully, not the taste!
Bold colours and clear facial expressions support the minimal text on each page, describing feelings which can be shared and discussed at many levels between carer and child.
