'A Gallery of Cats Brown, whose exceptional draughtsmanship makes all her books a feast, visits a gallery with a difference in this picture book about cats and artists. A book to lead readers to 13 painters from Mondrian to Munch and Kahlo to Klimt.' Sunday Times Culture Magazine;'Ruth Brown is well known for her beautifully imagined realistic images of cats and the world through which they move. Here we see her in her element as she takes a playful look at some of the world's great masterpieces... What a lovely and memorable way to be introduced to the world of art inside the classroom or out of it.' Books for Keeps;'This book is a delight to explore from start to finish. It's imaginative, expressive and immersive. There is a perfect synergy between art and text... simply sublime' Good Night To Read;'Cleverly conceived and superbly executed in her own painterly style, Ruth Brown presents a playful introduction to the work of thirteen world famous artists. Cat lovers and primary teachers in particular will love this novel way of bringing their work to life for children who have yet to see the real pictures.' Red Reading Hub
