A Chowder of Cats?

Patrick L. Talley

Description

In the childrens' book, A Chowder of Cats? we play with the fun names for different groups of animals (a "business of bees" as example).  The drawings and narrative and whimsical and fun and we even added "fun facts" on each animal.  The art and writing is playful and we even engage children to make up the group names for animals. The artwork is truly unique and will make you smile.

Fun Fact: Did you know that cows chew their food for 8 hours
every day? That is a lot of chewing!

Fun Fact: Sheep have 300 degree field of vision.
That means that sheep can see behind themselves.
I bet it's hard to sneak up on a sheep.
