This Week’s Featured Work: Bookplates with Slinky the Cat

Here's Slinky. He's a clever cat. He can't read books, but he can read your mind... Late on a cool Thursday evening in October, you look across your living room at your bookshelf filled with great literature and think to yourself, "Yes... tonight's the night to start reading that copy of Anna Karenina that I bought back in... back in... oh dear, far too long ago! Oh why haven't I read that book!" As you gaze at your bookshelf worrying about all those unread classics, Slinky begins reading your mind... He senses your angst... Slinky follows your sight-line, gets up from his favorite chair and saunters across the room. Up onto the bookshelf he launches himself and settles in for a deep, purring nap... resting contently right on top of that copy of Anna Karenina. It's his book now.

This original illustration is featured in my newest set of bookplates. Each bookplate is 3.1"x4.25", self-adhesive, twenty in a box. Note: Slinky's signature and paw mark are not normally present on these bookplates.
