Sweet, tender, and perfect for the youngest picture book readers, this book from a standout, upcoming illustrator names a child's need for trust, experience, and deep affection through the story of an adorable kitten.

What does a small cat need? Two little eyes, two little ears, big whiskers, and a tail, to start. What else does a small cat need? Maybe a walk in the flowers, a sip of milk, or a warm spot to laze around in the sun.

But above all else, what a small cat needs is... someone big or little--maybe someone just like you!--with cuddly arms and a huge heart to pet it and hear it purr. Yes, every cat needs that!

Author-illustrator Natalia Shaloshvili and translator Lena Traer, the team behind Miss Leoparda, return with another gorgeously illustrated picture book featuring charming animal characters about an important topic: our physical and emotional needs, in what we seek out in the world and what we can provide to each other.
