This book looks at the different myths of cats and their breeds, worldwide. For example, The Archtypical Cat: Tabby, focuses on how this cat inspired William Blake's poem "Tyger." It looks at how this breed of cat is now the domesticated fat feline of today. Quite weighty for a YA tome...it was classified as NF in the Adult section of the library!
