Descripción Hardcover. Condición: new. Dolensky, David Ilustrador. Hardcover. Age range 6 to 9Featuring quirky, vintage-inspired illustrations, this charming story tells the tale of a cat moving to a new island home, where things take an unexpected turn.When a curious cat named Tibbles and her owner move across the world from England to a new home on a small island off the coast of New Zealand in 1894, everything seems idyllic at first. Then things go horribly wrong. In this charming little story, the oblivious, amusing hero, Tibbles, discovers a rare species of flightless bird that had never previously been described the Stephens Island wren. Unfortunately, Tibbles also becomes the cause of the birds extinction by preying on them.Beneath the surface of this whimsically told story is a sophisticated tragicomic plot with a foundation in Greek tragedy. Tibbless killing of the Stephens Island wrens led to the eventual extinction of the entire species, and the tragedy is heightened by the fact that Tibbles was not a malicious or malevolent creature, but rather a normal cat behaving according to its instincts. To add insult to injury, Tibbles is not only innocent and ignorant about the effects of her actions; she is also silly, care-free, and wildly unconcerned. This book presents a true story in a subtly comedic light, but the underlying tragedy is still present, emphasizing the unintended consequences of human actions on the environment.Ultimately, the tale of Tibbles the cat had a silver lining it brought global awareness to the dangers of introducing non-native animal species to other continents. Beautifully illustrated in a vintage style, with heavy graphic novel elements, this quirky, captivating tale will take readers on an emotional, darkly funny journey of discovery and consequence, all while teaching valuable lessons about the environment and the human impact on it. The book also includes interesting facts about the Stephens Island wren and its discovery.Tibbles the Cat is perfect for children aged 69 inclined towards funny stories and deep lessons. Through this unique, engaging, and darkly comedic story, kids will be entertained as they learn about history and conservation, with humor being the sugar that helps the environmentalist medicine go down. Laughing one moment and considering serious issues the next, children will learn about the impact of humans on animal species and the importance of protecting wildlife.'A great story that mixes the story of discoveries and of a cat in New Zealand in XIX I liked the drawings and think it deals with an important issue like introducing new species in an enviroment Highly recommended. Many thanks to the publisher for this arc, all opinions are mine' Anna Maria Giacomasso, Librarian'A charming and fun story about a cat and his owner that discover a rare species of bird and accidentally leads to the extinction of said rare bird. This was a neat story that was both funny and has a deep lesson. The artwork is giving a cozy and fun tone and the story itself was unique.'
