Big Cat Little Cat《大猫小猫》是获奖图书2018年凯迪克银奖的儿童绘本，描述了一个令人心酸的故事，用严谨的文字和大胆的黑白插图讲述了继续前行的过程。

有一只猫，独自居住。直到有一天，一只新的猫来了…

于是一段友谊的故事就这样开始了，它跟随着这两只猫度过了它们的日子、月、年，直到有一天，那只年长的猫不走了，再也不回来了...

There was a cat

who lived alone.

Until the day

a new cat came . . .

And so a story of friendship begins, following the two cats through their days, months, and years until one day, the older cat has to go. And he doesn't come back.

This is a poignant story, told in measured text and bold black-and-white illustrations about the act of moving on.

A Caldecott Honor Book

"With quiet grace, Cooper delivers the message that love persists through loss."―Publishers Weekly

"Cooper's gentle tale of the loss of a feline friend is perfect bibliotherapy for those who have lost a loved pet. "―Kirkus Reviews

"Kids won’t have to be cat lovers to find this endearing and quietly reassuring, while young cat owners will want to tell the tale of their own feline friends."―Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

"A gentle, loving look at the life cycle of pets; young readers will be able to gain confidence in retelling the story using the text and the pictures."―School Library Journal

"Cooper’s thick black lines produce figures full of kinetic energy and personality. The circular nature of the story is beautifully reinforced by the repetition in both art and text, and the result is at once realistic and comforting."―The Horn Book

"In a final double-page spread the two dream happily, completing the concept of the circle of life in loving contentment."―Booklist
