Oscar and the Mooncats
Oscar and the Mooncats
by Lynda Gene Rymond, illus. by Nicoletta Ceccoli
published Fall 2007, Houghton Mifflin Company
Oscar loves his boy.
He also loves stinky cat food for breakfast and crunchy cat food for dinner.
He loves his catnip mouse and his red pillow by the window. Maybe more than anything else, though, he loves to jump up on top of things and watch . . . everything.
Oscar loves his boy. But is love enough to get him home again?
"In this sweet picture book, an adventurous cat refuses to give up on going home when he strays too far. Little children will admire his courage and children and their grownups alike will admire the wonderfully creative multimedia artwork that Nicoletta Ceccoli has created to accompany the text. Using plasticine, collage, acrylics, and computer graphics, CeccoliÕs artwork has the depth and atmosphere which perfectly captures the magical moonlit scenes in the story." from LookingGlassreviews.com
