Review # 1 was written on 2019-12-18 00:00:00 Dang Dang This simple board book shows Meg and her young companion enjoying the garden, playing, discovering, in good weather or bad. When the little boy goes to bed, Mog goes out but after a while comes back to sleep on his bed.

Review # 2 was written on 2019-04-18 00:00:00 Richard E. Sabatine That delightfully rotund feline, Mog the cat, whose story began in 1970 with Mog the Forgetful Cat , returns in this eleventh book devoted to her adventures. Narrated by a young Nicky, the text and artwork here depict boy and cat as they enjoy various activities in the Thomas family's garden, from lolling about in the sun to climbing trees... British author/artist Judith Kerr's Mog has featured in picture-books, board books and at least one early reader (not to mention a notable Sainsbury's Christmas television commercial). Mog in the Garden, first published in 1994, and just reprinted this year (2019) is the fourth board book in the series, following upon Mog and Me (1984), Mog's Family of Cats (1985) and Mog and Barnaby (1991). Although I have read most of the Mog stories, this is one of the few that I had been unable to track down, until it came into work today. Imagine my surprise and delight! The text here is simple but appealing, but the chief draw is the lovely artwork, which is humorous and heartwarming by turns, perfectly capturing Mog's inimitable feline charm. Recommended to fellow Mog fans, and to anyone searching for board books featuring cats.
