### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Loved this book for its bold colors, and so does my daughter
  

*by N***E on Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2022*

I bought this book specifically bc I loved it so much as a child due to its bold use of color and fantastic illustrations. Although my daughter is only 3 months, she fixates on bold colors so I bought this book to read to her. She loves it, judging by the unbroken stare she gives each page. I love the story also, and maybe my daughter will too when she's old enough to understand words. It's a great story about a scared young kitten who (accidentally at first but then purposefully) reverses the dictates of a tyrannical magistrate. Great stuff.

    cute children's story
  

*by W***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2012*

Why do Siamese cats have dark ears, paws, and tails?  Sagwa is a pearly-white Chinese kitten who lives with her parents, Baba and Mama Miao, and her two siblings, Dongwa and Sheegwa, in the House of the Foolish Magistrate, who is in charge of issuing rules for all the people and animals in his province and makes a lot of silly proclamations.  One day the Foolish Magistrate writes a decree that no one can sing until the sun goes down.  He doesn't see Sagwa perched up high on a shelf.  After he leaves, Sagwa decides to do something about it, so she jumps down, lands in the inkpot, and gets ink on her ears, paws, and tail, but she also blots out the word "not" on the paper.  When it is read, it will say, "People must sing until the sun goes down."  But what will the Foolish Magistrate do to Sagwa and her family when he finds out what has happened?  When our boys were young, they occasionally watched the animated PBS series Sagwa.  We even used some of the early reading books taken from the television show, which are credited to George Daugherty who produced it.  One day while watching a segment with our younger son Jeremy, I noticed that it was based on characters taken from a children's book by Amy Tan, whose name I recognized but had not read any of her books.  Tan is well known for her adult novels, such as The Joy Luck Club, The Kitchen God's Wife, The Hundred Secret Senses, and The Bonesetter's Daughter.  I like the story of Sagwa because, in addition to being a fun folk-like tale for youngsters, it exemplifies and encourages bravery in the face of injustice.  Also, we are "cat people," so it has a special interest for us.  Originally published as The Chinese Siamese Cat, some editions are called Sagwa, the Chinese Siamese Cat, most likely due to the popularity of the animated show.

    This is a wonderful book with an interesting story.
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2009*

Like many, I bought this book to get the background on Sagwa after watching the TV show. This is a wonderful story, told by the mother cat about her ancestors. It is engaging for both the adult reader and my children. And the illustrations are captivating and complex, yet simple enough that my children always look very closely and study each page. (they are 4 and 3). The illustrations aren't at all like the TV show, and truly I like the book's illustrations better. They are more suited to the story. I also like this book because it presents a story that is different than most silly/giggle books, yet is still very interesting and entertaining for both the adult and children.
