The Biggest Cat in the Book

Cats of all shapes, colors and sizes star in this playful picture book, but which of them is the biggest?

From tiny kitten Pippa, who loves to explore slippers, to Paisley the Persian cat, who loves cardboard boxes, and Dave the Devon Rex, who is DEFINITELY not related to the T. rex, this book contains a bunch of adorable cats.

Each is special in its own way, but only one of these lovable fluffballs can be the biggest. A fun surprise at the end of the book reveals just who is the BIGGEST cat in the book.

This picture book for children offers:

• A charming story written by award-winning author Ben Lerwill, following Pippa the kitten and her friends as they search for the Biggest Cat in the book.
• Adorable illustrations of a variety of cats by prizewinning illustrator Mark Chambers.
• A surprise open-out page at the very end revealing the Biggest Cat in the book.

This fun story introduces different cat breeds and involves playful repetition throughout, reinforcing new vocabulary for little ones. Purr-fect for cat-lovers, this playful story is the second in the Biggest series.
