Mog and the Baby
Mog the cat is an established favourite with most young children. in this new paperback Mrs Thomas is looking after a neighbour's baby and to Mog's chagrin pays the infant too much attention whilst remaining oblivious to the unwanted attention the child is giving Mog. However, as is her wont, Mog eventually emerges as the day's heroine.
The pictures of Mog are marvellous: her moods and feelings being beautifully captured in her expressions; those of the baby are less good and some are decidedly odd.
