5.0 out of 5 stars A fabulously funny feline tale!!!, 24 Aug 2002
I bought this book for my 3 year-old son as a birthday present and from the first time we read it, it has become one of our firm favourites! It's told in rhyme and the words flow smoothly and quickly from one page to the next bringing the story to life with wonderful images of a prowling, mischievous cat who ends up in hot water because of his thieving ways. The pictures that go along with it are vibrant and apt, taking the reader along with every weird and wonderful item Slinky Malinki steals and then drags back to his house on the hill. My son was giggling half way through already and didn't stop until the end of this magical tale.

5.0 out of 5 stars A rhyming, funny and exciting story about a rapscallion cat!, 23 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Slinky Malinki (Picture Puffin) (Spiral-bound)
This book grabbed my 22month old daughter's attention from the first reading. She will ask to have this book read to her over and over again. Linky (as she calls him) is captivating from the first page. My daughter especially loves the part of the story when the dogs on the block go 'Ro Ro Ro Ro' - Lynley Dodd seems to have a knack at making animal noises come alive on paper. My daughter also recommends Hairy McLary from Donaldsons Dairy! A very funny book and a bit of a tongue twister.

5.0 out of 5 stars Slinky Malinki is a "stalking, lurking, adventurous cat", 11 Mar 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Slinky Malinki (Picture Puffin) (Spiral-bound)
Slinky Malinki is a fabulous book, full of rollicking rhyme which captures the imagination and well describes the escapades of a "stalking, lurking, adventurous cat", whose midnight wanderings go horribly wrong one evening. Fun to read and fun to listen to.
