Spot, the Cat - Hardcover

by Henry Cole (Author), Henry Cole (Illustrator)

Simple and stunning images tell the story of a cat named Spot as he weaves his way in and out of a city in this wordless picture book from award-winning author-illustrator Henry Cole.

Through this gorgeous visual narrative, Henry Cole shows us a day in the life of a cat named Spot. Spot sneaks away from home by way of an open window to go on a wordless journey through the city. Follow Spot as he weaves through busy city streets, visits a farmers market, wanders into a park full of kite-flyers, and beyond. But while Spot is out on his adventure, his beloved boy owner is looking for him--seeming to just miss him every time. When all seems almost lost, Spot's story reminds us that there's always a way back home.

With stunningly detailed black-and-white illustrations, readers will love following Spot on his adventure--along the way finding characters and objects that appear, disappear, and reappear--and cheering for the sweet reunion at the end.
