T. S. Eliot's Macavity - the mystery cat and most famous master-criminal cat of them all! - is brought to life by delightfully humorous illustrations from Arthur Robins, a timeless magical partnership.
Thomas Stearns Eliot was born in St Louis, Missouri, in 1888. He came to England in 1914 and published his first book of poems in 1917. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1948. Eliot died in 1965. Arthur Robins is a renowned cartoonist and illustrator of over fifty books, including Little Rabbit Foo Foo.
"It's rare that a poem not meant for a picture book translates so
smoothly into the form, but Macavity does, coming in at the perfect
length with ample opportunity for illustrations to help build out
the story. . . .Like Eliot's verses, [Robins's illustrations]
present a world of mischief and hilarity."The New York Times
"Robins has infused new life into the trickster cat." --Kirkus
