Rating:
Summary: I really liked the book and the movie.
Review: I really liked this book. I don't know if I really understand it that well though. I also saw the movie. The movie was especially good. But,I feel as though you learn more by reading the book.

Summary: A Keepsake for the Lover of CATS
Review: If you love the Theater, you will enjoy most of this book of the Musical Cats. The book delivers on the "dialogue" of the musical, which, of course, is right out of "Old Possum's Book of Pratical Cats." You also get some of the insights from those who made the musical happen. There are some good costume sketches, but the photographs leave a lot to be desired. Taken under performance conditions, most of the photos are too blurred or too dim for the quality of the rest of the book. The book is still a treasure for those who have seen the musical, and an overview for the unfortunate who has not.

Summary: Wonderful
Review: If you saw the show and liked it enough that you want a book of lyrics and cast photographs, then this is a book you want. If you haven't seen or didn't like the show, I can't imagine why you would want this.

Summary: Purrrrfect!!!!!!
Review: My child is a huge fan of the musical CATS and I bought this book for him so he could have pictures of all of his favorite characters. He loves this book and I found it definitely worth the price! The pictures are beautifully done, the colors are vibrant and it's a great companion to the CATS video that we already own. I definitely reccomend this for CATS fans!

Review: This book is amazing, if you have never seen Cats this is the book for you! You don't know what your missing! This book is filled with pictures from the original Broadway cast, with lyrics of T.S.Eliots wonderful poems, and interviews with Andrew Lloyd Webber, Trevor Nunn, Gillian Lynn and John Napier. I love Cats, and will hopefully appear in it one day, if you feel the same way I do...BUT THIS BOOK!!!!!!

Summary: A great introductory book for fans of the musical CATS.
Review: This book is great for people who have never seen CATS live or who have only seen it in its' new video form (nov. 98). It's got great pictures for those who are interested in costume design, as I am, but also a summary of the plot to help people new to the musical along. And of course, any CATS fan would love to add this to their collection!

Summary: Awsome, nearly all the lyrics, and pics!
Review: This book was awsome! The only thing that remotly threw me off track was the original cast's costumes! If you were like me, and had only seen the video, take a good close look at Mongogeri and Rumpletezer, then look at them in this book, it's freaky! The book contains nearly all the songs lyrics, (Excluding a few lines of the really long songs, such as Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat) and lots of photos from the original production. It's quite a bargin at approximently $13.00, my uncle payed much more for his!

Summary: A misleading title...
Review: This is a wonderful "book" if you're easily bemused by bright, pretty pictures and simple words. (Are you listening, Dan Quale?) There's approx. one page devoted to how the musical was written and came about, but the real truth is that this "book" is merely the libretto w/ pictures. Don't be afraid, though: they're PRETTY pictures and the book doesn't cost you a paw, either...(I'm so sorry for that)
