* I received an arc of this book from the publisher to review, in exchange for my honest review

Papillon is a very fluffy kitty. So fluffy that he's lighter than air! His owner tries to weigh him down, but Papillon just wants to fly. 

One particularly sunny day, he floats right out the window! Exploring the wide world is exhilarating, but it's also a little scary. Will his new friend, a bird, be able to help him find his way home?

Whimsical art and airy text come together seamlessly in this delightful debut by A. N. Kang.

This is one purrrrfect picture book! From the whimsical story to the adorable illustrations, it's not hard to fall in love with Papillon. This fluffy kitty is one cat lovers, and non cat lovers will have a hard time not falling in love with. Plus, there are costumes! Now I'm not a fan of dressing animals up, but Papillon definitely looks in a hat. 

This is one picture book that young readers will love. Between the story and the illustrations, this book is a must have! Not only is the cover adorable, wait till you slip the jacket cover off and look at the cover. This is one picture I'd recommend picking up!
