More About This Book

Overview

Uncover a Cat offers a unique, hands-on experience for any kid wanting to know more about his or her fluffy companion. With an anatomical model built right into the book, kids can learn about a new part of the animal with each turn of the page! They'll find out why cats have long, sharp canine teeth, why their eyes face forward, and why they scratch—and how these traits help them hunt, eat, and communicate.

Why do a cat's eyes glow in the dark? Why do their tongues feel so rough? Why do some cats purr, and other cats roar? Whether we're gazing in awe at lions at the zoo or cuddling with our cute calicos at home, we love cats—but we often don't understand them. Yet some of our biggest questions about cats can be answered just by examining the structures of their bodies.

Uncover a Cat offers a complete picture of our favorite furry creatures—inside and out!
