At the same time, beautiful watercolor illustrations bring Ripley's animal friends and natural environment to life in delightful detail."" - Children's Book Review ""Once in a while, a book comes along that adults will love as much as children do. This is that book. I fell in love with Ripley, a tiny calico kitty who is always up to some kind of funny adventure. Plus, the illustrations are amazingly vibrant and delightful."" - Kirkus Reviews ""Mark Herrick's watercolor illustrations are as vibrant and expressive as the cast of characters but tastefully never outshine them, working with the dialogue-driven text to create an immersive experience. Cat and critter lovers will savor the art and the message of friendship."" - BookLife by Publishers Weekly
