Great story but the illustrations & bright bold colors stand out!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I did like so many of the other reviewers really like the story about a farmer & his wife and their very happy farm animals who live happily on their farm until one dark night when a shooting star falls from the sky onto this farmers fields that should have been sprouting baby cabbage plants.... and the rest is explained quiet well by the other reviewers. What I want to tell you that the others did not mention is the the bright beautiful colors that decorate the pages of this book. The colors are brilliant and the illustrations are just too cute! It's nice when the story is well written and is enjoyed by both parent and child, but when the book also illustrated and the colors choosen grab you, then you know what you are holding in your hand is special! Well worth the space in your personal home library!
You'll enjoy this book as much as your kids will

I checked out this book at the local library for my daughter. We kept it for 2 weeks and my husband couldn't get enough of it. I was shocked the first time I heard him read it for bedtime because it was so strange and so true. This story could have only been written by a DAD who was frustrated with too many breeding cats. It helped my husband bring into perspective the positive aspects of our 14 cats. The farmers wife claims they're no more trouble than house plants. I had to laugh at the echo! My daughter had fun picking out all of the soon-to-be cats and all the other details in the bright pictures. I'm on my way to buy it right now.
It's refreshing to see an unpredictable fantasy for picture book readers.

Scott Santoro's FARM-FRESH CATS tells of an ordinary farm day - or so farmer Ray thinks. But instead of nice cabbage heads poking up from the ground, there are nice cat heads... and instead of picking cabbages weeks later, cats are picked. A comet causes chaos - and what will Farmer Ray do with all these cats? It's refreshing to see an unpredictable fantasy for picture book readers.
Excellent! Kid approved!

Ever since I showed this book to my three and a half year old son, I've been reading and re-reading it to him every single night. He cannot let me leave his room until it's been read to him. I really like the character's and how they problem solve their hundreds of cats. All the farm animals are really cute as well. I recommend this one to anyone who has children, they're going to love it.
Cute sci-fi fantasy for small kids

This is a very clever little book. The story is a little like a Twilight Zone episode, but with a silly twist and not at all scary. A farmer and his wife discover that their cabbage patch is yeilding strange, green alien kittens. Soon their farm is over-run with them and the other barnyard animals become suspicious. The ending is very clever and the page where the entire farm is covered in a thousand of little green cats is hilariious. The artwork is colorful and upbeat and our two small boys really love it. Destined to become a classic!
