Happened by this from a friend on twitter and bought it immediately. It's not the first in the series of these 'taking flight' (Meek) books. The stories revolve around a family of cats who have wings and live in seclusion on a farm. I laughed at how well it was written compared to endless other 'first chapter' books. It's just exquisite and clever and worldly and charming and deep and sophisticated whilst also being enjoyable and playful - just like a cat.

I literally loved the Catwings books to death when I was growing up, out of the three books I had only one is still alive. They're fun, whimsical adventures for young kids just learning to read.

My future children will definitely have a set of these books on their shelves!

A lovely little story about the rewards and dangers of stretching your wings.

Just so charming, and I also enjoy the story that not everyone is at home in the country, some of us are city cats. And that sometimes people who appear to be nice to us are using us.
