 - Warriors - Cats of the ClansReally enjoyed this book! I loved seeing the illustrations of the different cats, even though many were left out or not fully illustrated. There aren't many new details here, but the stories were well done and the drawings beautiful. 5 stars! Rating:  - Warriors: Cats of the Clans (Warriors) Actually, I have not received this item yet, although it was indicated that it should arrive by August 6. Pretty dissapointing, specially taking into account that I bought this in early July (...and my kids are asking everyday about the book) Rating: - My Grandaughter loves these booksMy grandaughter (age 13)loves these books. Since she got hooked less than a year ago she has read them all. She and her friends devour each new book that comes out, and are also great fans of the Warriors web site. Rating:  - Beautiful artThe art is captivating in this! Illustrations make it definitely worth the buy, even if it's pretty short. I liked the style, and does Rock remind anyone of one of the three Erins with the way that he knows everything that's going to happen and hints at things, leaving us wishing for more? (hint: Vicky :P) The character bios are great, but not very in-depth, and told us pretty much what we already knew. With the exception of a few hints, like in Firestar's profile, where Rock wishes him a long and happy life and says something along the lines of "empty words from me, since I know how every one of his nine lives are going to end." Which led me to believe that Firestar would die this series. (Nooo! I'll miss him!) Once again - the art is incredible and makes the book worthwile! Tigerclaw looks incredibly cute for a villain. I would cuddle with him if he were a real cat. Rating: - It's finally here!!!!When Cats of the Clans came, I sat down and read it with my friend, Gabrielle, who is also a Warriors fan, on my couch (which is the same spot I read Secrets of the Clans) and we were emmersed into a beautiful world of fantastically painted pieces of art that displayed many of our favorite heroes and loated vilians. I admired the cleverness of how the book was set up. Rock, a long dead ancient cat from before the Clans came to the forest is in his cave on his part of StarClan when three kits who died at young ages from different Clans (including Bluestar's dead son, Mosskit) wander into Rock's cave. It is to dark for the kits to go back to StarClan's grounds, so Rock passes the time by telling them about cats of the clans. We get to see gorgeous paintings of cats from Firestar and Tigerstar to kittypets like Smudge and BloodClan cats like Scourge. When we finally hut the book, I was able to gather my thoughts and opinions about this book. The paintings are well done, but some pictures hide most of the cat, like Tigerstar's. He is peering out of a hole in some rock, scowling at us. I wanted to have pictures of the cats fully made, not half of them. and like Graystripe and Millie's pictures, you only see a bit of their heads. With Leapardfur, you couldn't really see why she's got leapard in her name. And there are NO pcitures of some of my favored warriors, like Whitestorm (he's AWESOME!!!!!), Lionheart, Redtail, and Spottedleaf. This really got me annoyed. Other cats didn't look like how I pictured them. Silverstream looked fat from how we saw her and not quite as pretty as the manga books, and we don't get to see Cloudtail or Brook, though they're listed. But still, it is a very well done piece of art, and I tip my hat to the painter and author. Alas, it could have been better (and thicker- it was WAY too short) but the author ignored this. Yes, yes, buy this product. You'll love it, though be disappointed at some parts. ~~~~~Moonwhisker~~~~~
