Great Little Book.......2007-01-10
I bought the whole serious for my 10 month old daughter after her doctor gave her, "Where's the puppy"? at one of her well baby check-ups. She absolutely loved the book! We took it with us to Church every Sunday and it kept her occupied. My daughter is now 15 months old and she still loves this book and all of the others in this series. These are by far her favorite books and she has a lot of books. They are also fun to read to her. Even her older 10 year old sister enjoys reading these little flap books to her baby sister. If you have a baby or need to buy a gift for someone who does, you can't go wrong with this book!
Me encanta este libro.......2001-04-20
"Donde esta el gatito?" is great for toddlers, especially one like mine who wants to open the flaps and turn the pages himself. Not only does he get to identify the cat, but there are also everyday things he can recognize on each page- bananas, a toybox and a laundry basket. The Spanish version lets me practice a little Spanish on him (and me), with easy and a little more difficult words mixed together. I recommend the series in English or Spanish.
A wonderful book for toddlers who love kittens & surprises.......1999-10-27
I bought this book for my oldest son about six years ago, and he just loved it (we have a cat, and he loved our cat too). It's a wonderful book for little kids because they can participate by lifting the flaps, and they love the surprise of finding the kitten hidden underneath. The book has been out of print for a while, so I am thrilled to see it's available again.

Truly trouching!.......2005-10-04
This was a fantastic book by the highest standards. It was truly a joy to read. Especially high praise for the Simon story, it made me bawl! Amazing how touching a story can be, especially those of us familiar with the bond between humans and animals. Eagerly waiting for any other books by Roxanne Willems Snopek!
Heartwarming stories.......2005-05-13
A wonderful collection of tales that will touch the heart. Particularly the tale of Simon, I found myself sobbing like a baby at the end, which is generally NOT a manly thing to do. The way Snopek write these stories, you can almost feel the characters come out of the pages and touch your heart, too bad they don't live long enough for those of us that love cats. I particularly loved it because of its Canadian content and origins. Well worth the price.
Incredible Tales About Exceptional Cats.......2005-04-22
Incredible Tales About Exceptional Cats is a wonderful book for people of all ages. The variety of stories can make you laugh or bring you to tears. It also can make you appreciate and love your precious pets more and inspire you to take care of them as your most precious treasures., and not to disregard them as soon as they immerge from being kittens to adults. Unfortunately there are still some people who do that because they have neither the patience or the love to care for these little ones for the rest of their lives.
Thank you!!.......2005-03-08
I was given your book "Amazing Cat Stories" as a gift and absolutely loved it! I wanted to thank you for your wonderful talents and allowing me to go back in time. I had to send my "Buddy" to kitty heaven this past August and I can honestly say that was the hardest thing I've ever had to do. After 15 1/2 wonderful years of companionship I felt lost without her. After reading your book, so many great memories came flooding back to me. I would defintely recommend this book to any animal lover or for that matter anyone with a heart! Thank you and keep up the great work!!
Great Cat Stories.......2004-12-30
A wonderful collection of short but inspirational stories, reaffirming the indisputable importance of animals in our lives - both for them and for the human race. Made me cry - and made me laugh! A great learning tool - for all ages. I loved it!

CAT LOVERS.......2002-03-20
This is one of the most charming books I have ever read, mind you having a box of tissues next to you is a handy idea. I really enjoyed the way it was written, almost from the animal's perspective. Lots of enjoyment, light reading and one I am very glad to have in my collection. I'm now going to try the other two books by Margaret Reinhold about her animals in Provence.

A book to remember!.......2005-09-07
As a lover of cats and of France, I found Helene Thornton's Cat Chat impossible to put down! It is a romance of how two very different people are drawn together by their love of one very beautiful cat. The author tells of her life in the south of France with Monsieur and how their ever-growing family of cats enriches their lives. I have read this book over and over and have never grown tired of it. This is a book worth having in your collection!
I read it in one night..........2004-07-13
It was that good! Cat Chat is the perfect book for the avid cat lover and Francophile. It is a story of love, cat adoration, travel to the South of France and a beautiful life. I ordered this book from Amazon.com.uk because it was not originally available in the US, and it was worth every extra dollar. It is a love story, without all the fluffy and erotic nonsense, a story of a couple that loves and admires cats and a story of two people living an authentic life in the South of France. If any portion of this description appeals to you, you will enjoy this book. If you truly dislike cats, don't buy it, as the auther is a real cat lover, but the story is not devoted to cats. What more can I say, except that if you love travel and relocation stories, if you have any admiration at all for cats and if you have even the smallest dream of living in the South of France, you will love this book. I ordered extra copies for friends and family, but my original copy is a keeper for my personal library.
Simply brilliant!.......2002-12-31
I just could not put this book down. Please can we have a follow-up?

Excellent CD!!!.......2007-09-27
We absolutely love this CD! It was stolen from our car (I know-who would steal my daughter's Christian child music?!? Obviously, they needed it more than we do.) But, we are definitely replacing this as soon as possible!

What could be a more sophisticated combination than the elegant streets of Paris, coupled with a regal brigade of fancy French felines? For this luxurious collection of black and white photographs, Barnaby Conrad III has selected prints that reflect the fascination and deep respect Parisians have for their cats. The photographs span almost 100 years of city life and include work by the greatest French photographers including Jacques Henri Lartigue, Gilberte Brassai, and Robert Doisneau. Truly urbanized, the Parisian cat traverses city roofs, slinks over cobbled streets, and curls up in the arms of loving city dwellers. Some of the selected photographs border on the bizarre--Max Vadukul presents a collage of black and white cats flying through the air above a classic Parisian rooftop.
Cats not only fascinated great French photographers, but also captured the imagination of famous French writers. A sampling of kitty-inspired words by Collette and Baudelaire complete this elegant little book.
Book Description
From kittens peering out of curtained shop windows to mysterious tomcats slinking across tiled rooftops, les chats parisiens embody the sensuous spirit of Paris. This charming volume presents an artful gallery of black-and-white photographs of felines by such twentieth-century master photographers as Jacques Henri Lantigue, Edouard Boubat, and Robert Doisneau. Accompanied by an entertaining introduction and whimsical musings on cats by some of France's most ?illustrious intellectuals, including Chateaubriand, Baudelaire, and Colette, Les Chats de Paris will delight cat lovers and Francophiles the world over.
Customer Reviews:
For the Francoailurophile in your life.......1999-12-14
There are some amazing shots of cats in this book, more so, even, than of dogs in Conrad's "Les Chiens de Paris". (I would assume it's more difficult to pose a cat than a dog.) However, there is also a bit of filler here, which wasn't true of the dog volume, possibly due to a smaller pool of eligible photos. Still, these cats are in rain gutters, atop pay phones, chasing mice along yardsticks, peeking over sheet music, performing in a street circus, tucked into a man's four-foot beard.
The pictures are adorable and innocent, but watch out. Conrad's witty introduction contains some racy passages (about the she-cat's sexual prowess, and a neutered tom's suicide) that might make some think twice about giving it to (literate) children. (If "Chiens" is G, "Chats" is PG-13.) For the urban adult ailurophile, however, this is the perfect gift.

Book Description
A first resource that answers nearly one hundred of the most common questions and concerns.
Many experts say that, conservatively, well over six million children have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. With the mounting pressure placed on parents to pursue a diagnosis and medicate hyperactive children, the urgency of life-changing decisions can weigh heavily on the whole family. Conflicting advice bombards parents from all sides-often leaving families more confused and anxious than before. The AD/HD Book seeks to quell fears and rationally addresses nearly one hundred common questions and concerns to help parents make sense of the information chaos.
Beth Ann Hill, herself a mother and educator of AD/HD children, clearly explains the basics of AD/HD and lays out its complexities. She logically takes parents from symptoms, diagnoses and tests, medication, a treatment strategy designed to combine medical treatment, and special parenting techniques to break through problem behaviors.
Whether readers browse through the question-and-answer format or read from start to finish, they will come to:
- understand the biological causes of AD/HD
- get the facts on prescription drugs
- cope with AD/HD's emotional impact on family and friends
- find comfort in real-life examples of challenges and their solutions
With the help of pediatric AD/HD specialist Dr. James Van Haren, Hill also develops unique strategies for teaching social and coping skills to children-and for having fun in the process. She includes worksheets, charts, daily planners, and more to help kids grow into adulthood with the tools to lead successful and productive lives.
