Whether it is for special birthday or just for fun .. My lessons from a cat books make great gifts for all ages! Reading level is officially 6 years and up, however, my cat stories appeal to all ages of cat lovers who appreciate the quirks of feline behavior. Whether adults read the books to kids or for their own pleasure, they get the "feel goods" too.
