In Andy Hirsch's Science Comics: Cats, we meet feline friends from the tiniest kodkod to the biggest tiger, and find out what makes your neighborhood domestic cats so special. Equipped with teeth, claws, and camouflage to survive everywhere from deserts to mountaintops, how did these ferocious felines make the leap from predators to playmates... and are they even done leaping?

Every volume of Science Comics offers a complete introduction to a particular topic―dinosaurs, the solar system, robots, and more. Whether you're a fourth grader doing a natural science unit at school or a thirty year old with a secret passion for airplanes, these books are for you!

Editorial Reviews

Review

Praise for the Science Comics series:

"This series―written by a handful of authors―seems determined to offer a useful introduction to anything a curious grade-school student might wonder about. The insight behind these books is a powerful one. So much information about the world around us is actually better conveyed visually, through charts, illustrations, and sequential panels, than purely using words." ―New York Times

"Like having a Time Life Science Library in comic books. Which is awesome!" ―Popular Science

Nice book but manufacturer's damage will affect longevity.

Nice book but manufacturer's damage will affect longevity.
It looks like a great book but the book came damaged. The book has deep creases and the pages are beginning to rip in the thin spots. Fortunately, the front and back covers are fine leading me to believe it is a manufacturing defect. It is too close to Christmas, though, to return it because Santa needs to give her something. My daughter really likes this series. I'm just disappointed that I decided to start wrapping gifts too late, apparently.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to read comic format, fun illustrations but great science books for my 9 year old

My 9 year old son loves this series of books. They are written in a comic strip format so kids can read them easily but contain a lot of information. The stories flow together well and the visuals are nice. My son always learns so much when he reads these. He has really enjoyed Crows, Cars, Planets and, if you can imagine, Plagues. Yes, Plagues was fun for him to read and he was telling me about antibodies, etc. Too cool!

Bought this for my 11 year old who loves science, reading, and graphic novels. It was perfect for her and is already well worn as if she'd owned it for years! (She got it for Christmas.) Can't wait to get more of this series for her.
