Talk to your cat

How to Talk to Your Cat
by Jean Craighead George
illustrated by Paul Meisel


George, author of Julie of the Wolves, demonstrates how to communicate with your cat by carefully observing its facial expressions and tail positions, and by listening to its meows. Photos of George interacting with Meisel's cheerful cat drawings make for a playful book.
