The award-winning team of Ursula K. Le Guin and S. D. Schindler brilliantly portrays a cat that searches for a great place to take a nap and then begins to dream. Cat Dreams is a great read-aloud picture book full of catlike imagery as only Le Guin and Schindler could create.

Reading Time Online review by Romi Sharp http://readingtime.com.au/the-sea-cat-dreams/I am adding The Sea Cat Dreams as a good resource in my new book, "Life and Loss" [3rd edition]. Linda Goldman, FT, MS counselling, ME early childhood education, LCPC, NBCC www.childrensgrief.netI would definitely use The Sea Cat Dreams with my clients, young and old. Youla Overbey MA, LLPCThe Sea Cat Dreams is a book I would wholeheartedly recommend. Claire Casha, Master in Family Studies, over ten years' experience of family therapy. Clinicians who treat children coping with change... will want to keep this book on their bookshelf [as] a valuable resource ... I highly recommend [it]. Barbara Cunningham, Psy.D., MFTreview by Jennifer DouglasWhat can I say about The Sea Cat Dreams but Wow! The realism of [Muza Ulasowski's] work puts the reader right ... within the book. She truly is an artist to be adored. The message of love and loss is hidden nicely within the adventures of the life of this cat but is clear enough for it to be addressed should the need arise. Coping with change also speaks clearly within this book and would be great used with a child who is sensitive to change in their lives. This book captivates, elates and moves. This is a book that shows the high quality that is available in children's literature. Review by Dr. Virginia LowePoulter's text is in gentle rhyming verse, and Ulasowski's paintings are rich and realistic. It is valuable for children to have picture books covering all aspects of life (and death).
