Scantic Books is proud to present Purretry, by Maritza Garcia, a collection of wonderful cat-centric poems.
You don’t have
to like cats or poetry to enjoy these poems. Anyone who has ever
watched cat videos on social media will enjoy this book. This selection
of poems in different styles run from silly to deeply poignant. Some
poems will make you laugh out loud, while others will remind you that
grief and struggle are not exclusive to humans. Maritza García has the
unique ability to write from the perspective of the cats themselves. She
appeals to readers of all ages. Children will enjoy the lyrical sounds
of the rhymes as they expand their vocabulary. Adults will enjoy her
playful use of language. To top it all off, Emily Fabrizi's playful and
expressive illustrations bring even more life to the already lively
poems. This book makes an excellent addition to anyone’s personal
library or a lasting gift for “cat people” of any age. Enjoy!
“The enchantingly titled Purretry will delight the imagination of all
cat lovers. Maritza García has brought to the page the music of rhyme
with the appreciation shared by T. S. Eliot in his songs of the
jellicles and other felines. Especially engaging in this volume are the
poems in the voices of a colorful variety of self-satisfied whiskered
beings. Open to any page and get ready to sing!” - Katharyn Howd Machan,
author of Secret Music: Voices from Redwing, 1888
