Mélanie Watt Bücher

(Nicht nur!) für katzenliebhaber: ein Katzenuniversum für den Kater Eigentlich wollte Mélanie Watt eine Geschichte über eine entzückende kleine Maus schreiben. Doch das passt ihrem Kater Chester gar nicht, und er mischt sich ein und entwickelt seine eigene Version: Er schickt die Maus auf Reisen, weil er ihren Sessel als Kuschelplatz haben möchte, verwandelt den großen Hund, den sie nach Hause bringt, zum Vegetarier und ist fest davon überzeugt, dass die ganze Welt sich nur um ihn dreht. Wie im richtigen Katerleben, oder? Innovatives, außergewöhnliches Konzept: ein Dialog in Text und Bild rund um einen Wettstreit zwischen Illustratorin und Kater: Wer ist stärker?

Das Chamäleon Leon hat ein Problem: Anders als seine Artgenossen, nimmt er niemals die Farbe seiner Umgebung, sondern die jeweilige Komplementärfarbe an. Statt grün wird er rot, statt gelb wird er lila, statt orange blau. Diese Tatsache macht Leon zum Einzelgänger.
