Kirkus Reviews Best Picture Book Conversation Starter List (2024)
The New York Times New York Public Library Best Illustrated Children's Books Award (2024)
"Playful . . . breathtaking." -- The New York Times
"Stunning, saturated watercolor and gouache illustrations . . . thought-provoking text . . . A lovingly told exploration of compromise leading to a new outlook on life." -- Kirkus Reviews (STARRED REVIEW)
An unconventional story about navigating differences and learning to be present.
When a cat and her human go for walks, the human always decides where they go and what they do. "But what if it were the other way around?" the cat asks one day. So the next time, the human follows the cat. When the cat is in control, she wants to stop more often, and she wants to chase squirrels and climb up trees. Her human finds all these detours ridiculous. But when you walk at a cat's pace, you can see the most amazing things.
Painted in richly saturated colors, The Cat Way explores the strange path to compromise and cooperation. Walking together might take some patience--but it can also lead to the most incredible surprises.

"Playful . . . breathtaking."
Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production
"There's a funny surreal quality to this story, while at the same time the emotions are so real to me. It's both telling its own story straight, while also feeling like it's talking about a lot more than just the relationship between a woman and her cat. The art is fantastic, I love the gatefold (a rare three-page gatefold, no less!) and the simplicity of the telling. GREAT work by translator B.J. Woodstein, by the way! It really gets the tone of the book down JUST right!"
Booklist
"A charming two-part story with a beautiful message about compromise and cooperation. . . . a book that will nurture creative minds of all ages and encourage them to imagine the possibilities under the starry night sky."
Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
"Stunning, saturated watercolor and gouache illustrations, in tandem with the thought-provoking text, translated from Swedish, chart the emotional journey of both human and cat as they discover that changing things up can result in fresh perspectives. A lovingly told exploration of compromise leading to a new outlook on life."
