It's a Secret by John Burningham


Burningham, John It's a Secret 56 pgs. Candlewick 2009. $16.99. PICTURE BOOK. Do you ever wonder where cats go at night? Marie often wondered why her cat Malcom, always slept during the day and left every night. She wanted to know where he went. One night, Marie convinced Malcom to let her come along. After dressing up, and shrinking herself to cat size, they took off into the night. Malcom led her past dogs and up to the rooftops where all of the cats were having a party. Once the Queen of Cats was there they were able to eat and have fun. They had to make sure that they got back before it was morning. When Marie and Malcom arrived home they both curled up on the sofa and took a nap. This is a fun idea of what cats do at night, something I had never thought of before. EL - ADVISABLE.
