One day in a life of a little boy and his pet cat is portrayed in this poetic picture book with dreamlike illustrations.
In this book the readers follow the actions of a little boy and his kitten in the course of one day and during this time we discover that there are more similarities between humans and animals than we would think--from sleeping and eating to playing and taking care of yourself. On each spread there is a question asking the readers about the topic concerned on the given page and making the reading experience interactive. Also, there is a little hidden object game throughout the book.
The lovely illustrations by a world-renowned Japanese artist Iku Dekune in combination with text by Czech contemporary poet Radek Maly makes the book Our Cat's Day irresistible.
Radek Maly is a Czech writer, poet, translator, and university teacher. He has achieved international success through his young adult book Franz Kafka: A Man of His Time and Our Own (2017) and his picture book Our Cat's Day (2023). His non-fiction books Atlas of Extinct Animals (2021), Atlas of Endangered Animals (2021), and Atlas of Prehistoric Animals (2025) have been translated into several languages, and his poetry collection for children Postman Wind (2011) was entered on the IBBY Honour List.
Iku Dekune was born in Tokyo, Japan. In 1992, she graduated from Musashino Art University. Her first published book was her own fairy-tale story The Bath (1994). Since 2002, Iku Dekune has lived in Prague, Czech Republic. She is a proud owner of a cat named Sabinka, who is also her best friend. When she was a girl, she wanted to learn the language of animals. And she has still kept this dream until today.
