This marriage of concrete poetry and art is one to pore and purr over again and again." --Lee Bennett HopkinsReviews“Cat lovers will recognize the standoffs with arching backs, the cozy touch of the “purrfect” scarf on their shoulders, and the tech-savvy cat who walks across the keyboard to add her own note to an e-mail to a friend.”—Booklist Synopsis:In 16 entertaining visual concrete poems (poems that are typeset in the shape of their subjects), Betsy Franco captures the distinctively entertaining habits and attitudes of cats.
