About This Item
New York. 2000. Callaway. 1st American Edition. Very Good in Dustjacket. 0935112448. Illustrated by Dasha Ziborova. unpaginated. hardcover. Cover art by Dasha Ziborova. keywords: Childrens Cats. FROM THE PUBLISHER - Crispin is a dignified cat with an undignified lifestyle. He lives with a family that simply doesn't appreciate him. (He feels.) If he's not blamed for things that he didn't do, then he is treated like a toy. Or worse, ignored as if he were a piece of furniture. In this witty picture book, children will be amused by Crispin's arch tone of voice and amazed by the adventures he dreams up in his intrepid, albeit imaginary, quest for an independent life, away from his 'tormenting' family. Along the way, children will also learn, together with Crispin, a valuable lesson about the importance of a family's love over more selfish desires. The watercolor collage paintings that run throughout are absolutely magnificent. In each scene Crispin's naughty but lovable character shines as he embroils himself in humorous shenanigans. Children will love picking out all of the details in his varied surroundings. Parents will be delighted that Crispin The Terrible is not only a thoroughly enjoyable book, but touches on a child's first feelings of independence; and, at heart, promotes the message of family love. inventory #28430 ISBN: 0935112448.
