Alliecats is an absolutely delightful book--an amazing visual and verbal pleasure. Its whimsical cats illustrate the incredible number of English words that contain cat and should expand the vocabulary of anyone, young or old, who has the joy of reading this unique book. I believe it will become a classic, like the works of Dr. Seuss. -Juliet Flower MacCannell, Professor Emerita, University of California, Irvine Ben's graphic pen and Allie's script brush show us that, whether as words or as drawings, puns are purrfect mirrors where reflection is fun and fun is reflection. Welcome to the looking glass of double takes! -Roch C. Smith, Professor Emeritus of French at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro
