        Starred review from July 4, 2016
        ���The cat walked through the world, with its whiskers, ears, and paws,��� writes Wenzel (Beastly Babies) at the opening of this perspective-broadening picture book. What those features add up to depends on the eyes of the beholder, not to mention scale relationships, instincts, and history. To a child, the cat looks like a pet: affectionate, big eyed, and adorable. But a flea sees a vast forest of dense hair to conquer. A mouse cowers before the dragonlike creature of horror that bounds out of a blood-red background with blazing yellow eyes. And a bee sees a collection of multicolored dots���a pointillist pussycat. The simple text (���the skunk saw a cat, and the worm saw a cat, and the bat saw a cat. Yes, they all saw the cat���) creates a powerful, rhythmic juxtaposition between word and image, and inventively varied renderings showcase a versatile, original talent at work, in media ranging from collage to pencil and watercolor. This is Wenzel���s first book as both illustrator and writer, and it���s marvelous���no matter how you look at it. Ages 3���5. Agent: Steven Malk, Writers House.

      • content: T. Ryder Smith's narration is buoyant and cheerful. There is a beat to his steady pacing that mirrors the paw-in-front-of-paw walk of the cat as he moves "through the world with its whiskers, ears, and paws." The cat meets a myriad of creatures from a child and a dog to a fox, a fish, a bee, a worm, and a bat. Young listeners will delight in the repetition as each animal "sees the cat!" and in the periodic refrain "Yes, they all saw a cat!" Smith's underscoring of each animal's name with a momentary pause provides emphasis; it won't be long before listeners will be chanting to themselves. A.R. �� AudioFile 2016, Portland, Maine

      • content: Actor John Lithgow evokes each animal--from the wee, squeaky bee to the formidable fox--that sees the cat. The shifts in point of view are charming. Lively accompanying music helps the listener imagine each creature as it catches a glimpse of the cat--or in the case of the flea, hitches a ride. Both the narration and the music add depth to the inventive illustrations by the author that show the different ways animals sense the cat as it moves through the world. The author reads a detailed note explaining how his interest in the natural world led to this charming picture book about the value of varying one's perspective.
