Picture Storybooks
Relatable for any cat-owner, a witty and heart-warming picture storybook from award-winning Eva Eland.
This fun and familiar tale of cat chase invites you to spot Cat in every scene as he hides from Suzy, from award-winning author and illustrator, Eva Eland.
Suzy is visiting Auntie today, and she wants to play with Cat. But where is he? Always just out of her reach, Suzy calls for him – all she wants to do is play dressing up, or dance together, or pretend they’re mummy and baby . . . but Cat doesn’t like the sound of that one bit. Will he change his mind at nap time, when Suzy is quiet and curled up in bed?

Reviews
An eye-popping palette of neon-pink, green and yellow matches the high energy of Suzy, who greets Auntie on her doorstep, arms flung open, hollering “Where is the cat?”. So begins a familiar yet funny game of hide and seek between the pair – with little readers able to join in too – as Cat tries everything to avoid her: squishing himself pancake-like under chairs, teetering on top of wardrobes and peeking through plants, each page a spotting opportunity.
The Guardian
a must-have book for any child who has encountered a cat that does not want to play… This is a delightful picture book
