KITTIES ON DINOSAURS

Michael Slack

In this adorable tale of perseverance, a daring, dinosaur-climbing adventure leads to hilarious kitty hijinks!

They're adorable! They're daring! They're kitties who love to climb things! And they won't give up until they've achieved their ultimate climbing dream: scaling the dinosaurs on nearby Dinosaur Island.

The level-headed narrator warns the kitties that the dinosaurs look hungry, that their teeth are super big, that things look terribly bleak if they go through with climbing the dinosaurs. But these kitties have a plan. And then another plan. And then another...well, you get the idea. Can these fair kitties conquer their biggest challenge yet and avoid cat-astrophe?

Textured, motion-focused digital art in mellow tones complements the feisty, big-eyed kitties' nonstop action. An absurd conceit bolsters a lively story that encourages ambition, tenacity, creative problem-solving, and cuddling.

Slack's jewel-toned digital art is full of action, onomatopoeic text emanata, and visual puns that are sure to bring out the storytime giggles; especially delightful are the kitties' mobile litterbox and the dinosaurs hopscotching over hot lava. The clear, conversational text includes plenty of bolding and font size changes to help encourage an active telling and it is sure to result in some listeners choosing to read along.

Slack's jokey, cajoling narration adds to the fun of this silly romp. The digitally painted illustrations of round-eyed kitties and toothy cartoon dinos will entice fans of both to read or listen.
