A beautiful, large-format gift edition of Jackie Morris’s classic cat picture book

“I am Cat. At night I prowl, but in the day I sleep, curled in warm places. And when I sleep, I dream …”

Cat’s dreams lead into the lives of other cats in far-off and wild places, a tiger in the jungle, a cheetah on the African plains, a jaguar swimming in the forest river, a wild cat in the Scottish Highlands, a snow leopard in the Himalayas … Ten species are depicted, each in its own environment, in breathtaking full-spread illustrations.

Reviews for I am Cat

It’s a beautiful book that we can thoroughly recommend.... The colours pop, the paper is rich and the whole thing is a feast for the senses. But, as always with Jackie Morris, the star of the show is the artwork. Magnificent paintings that not only represent the big cat in focus but somehow open the door to its spirit as well. * The Letterpress Project * A ginger cat curls up “ammonite tight” and dreams of ranging the Earth as tiger, cheetah, lynx and other big cats in this huge, gorgeous edition of Morris’s 2012 classic. Condensed, poetic text, glorious watercolours and additional information about each creature make this a picture book with serious growing room. * Imogen Russell Williams, The Guardian *
