Illustrated by David Parkins
The ten Blooming Cats include Saucy Tom, Brave Nancy, Brainy Sue and the Tiddleywink Twins. Each cat, drawn in a cartoon style, has its own unique personality but they are also a close knit group. When the retired school caretaker who has befriended them collapses in his house, they hatch a plan to get help for the stricken pensioner. Written entirely in the present tense, this big book version of Blooming Cats should guarantee it an even larger audience. Perfect for use in literacy hour with top infants or lower junior classes.
