Two more of Wildsmith's 16-page 'Cat on the Mat' books in which a very short text accompanies his vibrant patterned illustrations so loved by children and adults alike. What a Tale is literally a cumulative tail with a pleasing twist as we discover that dog, cat, fox, rabbit and monkey are all aboard one large kangaroo. My Dream is more straightforward with the young dreamer's antics 'I ride a tiger', 'I sit on a whale' etc. contained in a dream bubble above the bed on each double page spread.
