Bruno, the Standing Cat

Praise

“Bruno’s facial expressions provide most of the laughs—they range from horror to disdain to great delight—and the standing cat’s distinctive personality makes the book well worth sitting down with. ”
-Publishers Weekly

“This comical story upends reader expectations and is perfect for group sharing. Its one-dimensional, thick-lined illustrations are positioned on simple backgrounds, often a solid color, which allows young readers to stay focused on Bruno’s antics. . A sweet concluding scene draws this entertaining story about individuality and friendship to a close.”
—Booklist


“The simple, cartoonlike illustrations, heavily outlined in black and backgrounded by saturated pastels, are as whimsical as the story. The tuxedo cat’s expressions as it regards a bowl of kibble or gets down and boogies are priceless.”
–Kirkus
