Buy Book "Cat lady" in Ukrainian

This is a great book, just right for winter reading. And not only because the story is set in the middle of winter, but it’s also very cute and can immediately cheer you up. Perhaps the secret lies in the fact that its characters are cats :), or perhaps because the story is very positive and life-affirming. Six little kittens live on the street, in the midst of cold and danger. But they are real fighters and cheerful cats, so one day they decide to build a house for themselves with their own paws. I really like such modern stories: they don’t explicitly put the moral to the fore, but you can feel it very well. The importance of staying together with true friends, helping each other in difficult times or someone who is in trouble (a wonderful moment when the cats are fed by a shop assistant) – these are the right principles of life that a child should learn from a very young age.

A good, interesting story, knowing that there is a sequel, is a must-read for everyone. My child was looking at the illustrations with delight, they are beautiful: mobile, restless cats, so different, each with its own character. Indeed, only from the pictures can you make a story and observe the events.

The quality of the book is good. The format is square, hardcover – this book will be a good gift for a holiday, will decorate any children’s library. I recommend this fabulous story to everyone.

This book is a sort of offshoot of the story of the funny 36 and 6 cats. It tells the story of those six kittens who first survived on the street by themselves, and then joined the merry gang of 36 cats, that is, this book is a kind of prequel (a story that happened before the main events of the other story).

So, six active and cheerful kittens live on the street, but long to have a home of their own. The kittens pester passersby, play, run around, have fun, but especially with the arrival of the cold winter, they increasingly wonder where they will have to spend the winter, because no one wants to take them home. And when it was already pretty cold and snowing outside, the kittens suddenly had a new, very unusual house.

By volume, the story is quite small, but it is very well told and designed, suitable even for preschoolers: on each spread, just a few paragraphs of text and a large cartoon picture to match the text. And so the story of six kittens and their temporary home is read quickly.

And the content of the story is worthwhile: it teaches mercy and responsibility for animals.

I bought this book, firstly, because we have three books about 36 and 6 cats, and secondly, because my son loves cats, and thirdly, because it is a book about winter. But, to be honest, this book did not arouse much enthusiasm in me, because it lacked some kind of completeness of the story. You turn the last page and the question arises: “Is that it, is that the end?” Of course, we still have this book in our library, but I’m not sure how long it will stay there. The illustrations are beautiful, no doubt, but I would like to see some fascinating content. Personally, I would not recommend this book as a prequel to the trilogy about 36 and 6 cats. Without this book, the trilogy will lose nothing, in my opinion. But I will give this book another chance.

Of course, there are instructive moments in the book – about friendship, about help, about miracles.

Perhaps this book will become one of our favorites, because I love snowy winters, and this book conveys the mood of winter very well and sets you up for winter holidays.

I think that in addition to the written story, you can make up your own story based on the illustrations, which are very cute.

This is a prequel to the story of 36 and 6 Cats, which tells the story of six funny kittens who are forced to survive outside in the cold winter. Despite the cold and the absence of their owners, the kittens are like real children, lively, inquisitive, and mischievous. They are happy when a kind woman gives them sour cream or milk, they play outside with everything they can get their paws on, they have fun in the snow, they get warm where they can. But at the same time, the kittens constantly dream of their own home. And one day they come up with the bold idea of building their own house. But since it’s winter outside, and there are no other building materials but snow, the kittens build themselves a snow house.

The story is wonderful, dreamy and mischievous, bright, and well complemented by illustrations (on each spread). Some of the drawings (particularly the winter cityscapes) are strikingly tender and cozy.

I had the temerity to give my daughter (age 9) this book the morning before school, and she didn’t want to go anywhere until she finished it. Finished it in 15 minutes and went to school happy and very excited about the book.

Halyna Vdovychenko “Kotohatka”

It’s always nice to meet old friends. It is twice as pleasant to learn something new and interesting about them.

And although we are a bit too old for this book and after all three “36 and 6 Cats” there is very little in this one, the impressions from it are just as positive and vivid. It seems that sometimes it is worth buying a book not only for the text but also for the illustrations.

It was only with Kotokhatka that I realized how poor books were in my childhood. Even my favorite Fairy Tales of the World, which I read to the hilt. They lacked brightness and imagery. Perhaps it developed the imagination, but today I realize that bright illustrations would have been the decoration of all the books I read as a child.

So I think I will reconsider my policy of buying books for my son that contain more text than pictures.

As for Kotokhatka itself, it is very cozy and mimetic. How else could it be, if it’s about the smallest of 36 cats and 6 cats? And although I still don’t recognize all of them (and I should, having read so much about them), I will definitely distinguish them from other whiskered-tailed cats)
