How did our parents get hold of this book in Christchurch New Zealand! We grew up reading this book and never thought any thing was weird about it, but man it's twisted! And it was cool how it was kind of based on New Zealand too... Is it supposed to be a kid's book? It's pretty adult! We have lost our copy (never loan anything to your children or their friends) and would love to know how much it would cost to replace it. Can anyone help us!

A friend recently passed this book around at an adult party, much to everyone's amazement. The pictures must have been drawn by someone on acid. Everyone's favorite picture was the group of "circus freaks," including a pantsless man with three penises. One page showed a cave with a penis as one of the stalactites. A cloud was in the shape of a nude woman, including nipples. A sequence of tiny pictures in a banner showed a person's life from his graphic birth to his death, including his sexual union that produced his own child. This is one weird children's book.

The only time I have ever seen this book was in the early 80's in Santa Clara, California. A person I met owned it and let me read it. I've been looking for it ever since. I thought I would try Amazon on a whim. Was I surprised to find it was even mentioned. I will buy it first opportunity I get.

This was a great book. my mom and i both loved it.it is one of my favorite books. i love stories about cats and i also LOVE!!!! cats.

Minnie is a wonderful book. Anyone can read it, but I would strongly recommend reading it if you're a cat lover. Being one myself, the plot of this book made me smile. Tibbs, a reporter for a newspaper loves to write about cats but is not supposed to. When Minnie, a young girl, comes along one day and ends up living with him, his job gets much easier. Since Minnie used to be a cat, she gossips with other cats to get news which no humans knew about yet. Minnie is also a handful, but Tibbs and her become great friends. This book is a quick and fun read full of imagination.

I liked Minnie because it was funny and it shows that cats are smart too

This book is incredible! It takes poetry to a whole new level. Poems that Children can truly relate to. Each poem is a "story" in itself with a message. Beautifully written and one you and your children will love to read over and over again!
