(3) PS Cleo the Cat series. Illustrated by Caroline Mockford. This attractive rhyming book challenges readers to guess the objects that represent each letter of the alphabet. "A is crunchy, / crisp and red. / B floats on the waves." In the bold, uncluttered illustrations, Cleo the orange cat appears on nearly every page, interacting with the objects in question, while the thick black outlines echo the typeface.

(3) PS Cleo the Cat series. Illustrated by Caroline Mockford. Illustrations in vibrant colors, outlined with a bold black line, make Cleo's newest adventure as appealing as ever. The orange tabby ventures out of "one big gate" and past "two small dogs" to explore the countryside in this concept book, which counts up to ten and, on the last page, back down to one. The brief text and expressive art make this book perfect for reading aloud. A removable height chart is included.

(4) PS Cleo the Cat series. Illustrated by Caroline Mockford. Due to some awkward phrasing, the texts of the two newest Cleo books are not as snappily written as their predecessors. However, the acrylic artwork, which makes an impact with bold black lines and vibrant colors, is as lively as ever. Fans of the marmalade-colored tabby will appreciate her new adventures as she moves to a new house and rides on a sled.

(3) PS Illustrated by Caroline Mockford. A rhyming text set in a bold typeface describes Cleo the cat's fear and resentment, then acceptance of, her family's new dog, Caspar. Outlined with a thick black line and saturated with bold color, the clearly defined shapes in the artwork suit the simple story.
