This lovely book, Big Cat, Little Kitty, introduces youngsters to the days of the week as they travel to seven different habitats to meet wild big cats, which are cleverly compared to domestic cats closer to home. Is a big cat's hunt for food similar to a little kitty's playing with a ball of yarn? Read and find out! The full-color illustrations are rich, creamy, and captivating!

Homeschoolers will love the educational section of this book, which includes activities for comparing and contrasting cat adaptations, matching cats to their habitats, and mapping where cats of the world live. There are also free teacher and student activities at www.SylvanDellPublishing.com, making this a great addition to a unit study on cats or any of the geographic regions where these big cats live. This beautiful book, written for ages 4-9, is available in hardback for $16.95, paperback for $8.95, or even as an e-book with auto-flip, auto-read features for only $7.95.

You will be captivated by this lovely book, which will be a treasured addition to your home library!
