One of CCBC's Best Books for Kids & Teens 2019 PRAISE FOR Miss Mink: Pretty and positive (and posh). --Kirkus Reviews Miss Mink: Life Lessons for a Cat Countess would have great appeal for fellow grown-up cat lovers as a gift book or coffee table book. But for a younger audience, Miss Mink: Life Lessons for a Cat Countess is a book well-suited to be shared reading experience between adults and children. Highly Recommended. --CM Magazine The amazing pictures were originally done in oil on canvas. Children will enjoy looking at the detailed but whimsical illustrations and reading about feline rules for a good life. Cat lovers of all ages will also love this book! --Resource Links
