Kitties on Dinosaurs (Kitties on Dinosaurs #1)
by Michael Slack (Author) Michael Slack (Illustrator)
A daring, dinosaur-climbing adventure leads to hilarious kitty hijinks in this adorable tale of perseverance.
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?

Publishers Weekly
A rascally trio--one pink, one striped yellow, and one patchy gray feline--who live on cat-shaped Kitty Island have "climbed everything there is to climb" and now have a lofty new goal: scaling the three dinosaurs they've spotted on nearby Dinosaur Island. After the crew sails across the water in their litter mobile, they make unfriendly first contact with "prehistoric grouch lizards," then, in quick succession, enact plans B: Booted Buckaroos, C: Cat-mouflage, and D: Dino Drop. Slack's omniscient narration adds a wry metafictional tone to the kitties' exploits ("Close call, furballs. You barely escaped. Let me guess. Plan C?"). 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. Ages 3-5. (Sept.)
