When my children were little, this was one of their favorite books. We got it from the library several times a year and read it over and over. Fast forward a quarter of a century and I am now reading it over and over to our almost-three-year-old grandson.Angus doesn’t appreciate the new member of the family - the CAT. Every time he turns around the CAT is in his spot, eating his food, and doing things he’s not allowed to do. He tries to chase her and teach her a lesson, but Angus is TOO SHORT to reach her. One day the CAT disappears and Angus has the house to himself again. But he quickly realizes he has NOTHING-TO-DO and he isn’t quite as happy as he thought he’d be. Fortunately for Angus, the cat finally reappears and all is well.Marjorie Flack writes in a style that absolutely begs to be read aloud. Angus chases the cat UP-THE-STAIRS and soon finds himself ALL-ALONE. Kids just love listening to the rise and fall of your voice as you read the way Flack wrote.Although almost 90 years old, this little book is just as wonderful today as when it was first published. I’m pretty sure it will still be a favorite fifty years from now!

This is an old but delightful story with a story line any toddler is likely to love. It was one of my son's favorite stories, and now it's his daughter's favorite as well. It's absolutely timeless.

This was the only Angus book I didn't already own-and was purchased for my dog-loving one year old granddaughter to complete the trilogy. The book was in pristine condition and arrived well-packaged and on time. I am very pleased with the purchase-and my granddaughter is, too!

We originally read Angus Lost with my 3 year old son. He loved it so much he could recite the entire book from memory within days. We decided to try Angus and the Cat and Angus and the Ducks as well. He may love these two books even more than Angus Lost. They are all heartwarming stories about a curious Scottie dog. The illustrations are old-fashioned, but I love that these sweet stories are fun to read, memorable, and without any questionable content. I would say these are great books for any child between 2.5-4.

...And hopefully soon to be a favorite of my cousin's daughter Scarlett due the end of May! She asked for books for her to add to the nursery...reading is good for bonding with your child, even as an infant as babies love to hear their parents soothing voice! It came fast too and as an animal lover with a Scotty dog (Ebony), a Westi (Ivory lol), and a black and white cat named Boots I thought it would be fitting...and she immediately loved it! This is an oldie but def goodie!

This is an amazing book -- one of my favorite gift books for children. However, no where in the product description did it mention that this would be a ' used' copy and not new. This is embarrassing as I had purchased this as a gift.

Got this for the grandkids to look at when they come over. They like the simple story and the illustrations. I like it too!

This is a beautiful story, eloquently told and greatly enjoyed by all my children. The thought provoking finale is so good for helping to understand language that I recommend this for all children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Every child's favourite book!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 28, 2003
My 18 month old adores this book. The illustrations have variety, he loves saying 'pop' when the balloon bursts, enjoys the repetitive elements, likes being able to spot the cat when Angus can't see it, and always settles down happily to this favourite story. His elder brother went through a period of several months around age 18-24 months when he insisted on this story every single bedtime. I'm ordering a new copy because ours is so ragged - it first belonged to my brother back in 1974 and it was his favourite book too.
