| book description |

Before Hello Kitty rocketed to fame in the United States and around the world, she was a shoo-in for stardom in a country famous for its feline love affair: Japan. From cat cafes to â€œcat islandsâ€, all of Japanâ€™s furry friends take the spotlight in Catland. Picturesque city streets, shop windows, temples and more are the stage for cats across the country. But Sarah Archer will also take readers behind the scenes of this phenomenon. With charming storytelling, Catland explores both the past and present of Japanâ€™s affinity for cats. Archer transports readers to modern workshops where the Japanese carefully craft traditionally woven cat beds, â€œbeckoning catâ€ statues and cat clothing. With adorable illustrations and photographs, this book is just as irresistibly cute as its subjectsâ€”the perfect gift for the cat lover in your life.
