Meet Spot, the cartoon cat who leaps from page to page as he recounts daily life in a dried goods shop, sharing his intuitive dry humour on life, the superiority of cats throughout the ages, and the failings of humans’ so-called best friends.
This delightful book showcases Stephen Case’s cracking illustrations alongside Marcel Heijnen’s beautifully detailed photographs and quirky rhymes, brilliantly converted into comical Catonese by Aki Leung.
A chuckle for all ages, the book throws up a challenge too. Can you “spot the shop cat” in every photo?
It’s not as easy as you think!
Spot The Shop Cat is the fourth instalment in the successful Chinese Whiskers series, which gave us titles like Hong Kong Shop Cat, Hong Kong Market Cats and Hong Kong Garage Dogs.
一起來認識Spot,一隻居住於乾貨店裡的卡通貓,從書頁間跳來跳去,分享牠的日常生活點滴!幽默地介紹不同年齡貓貓的優點,以及人類所謂「最好朋友」的失敗 。這本令人會心微笑的《躲貓貓》,展示出Stephen Case的創意插圖以及Marcel Heijnen的精美的照片,而內文妙趣横生的押韻,則由Aki Leung巧妙翻譯成琅琅上口的廣東話。
這本書令各個年齡的讀者都會笑著閱讀,而且向各位提出了挑戰:你可以在每張照片找到鋪頭的躲貓貓嗎?
這並非像你想的那麼容易!
