First and foremost, Taco is his own cat. In addition to being a funny feline that likes singing opera tunes, he rules the remote and chases endless window birds; come watch his fur balls fly. Composed of 24 craftily connected haiku poems, A Cat Named Taco is a 26-page picture book filled with bold artwork as well as two dozen Catku, Wack-a-do stanzas of crazy cat fun written in Haiku, a poetry style consisting of three lines of five, seven, and five. As these lines move across the pages of A Cat Named Taco, they are perfectly suited to Taco's style of play, mimicking his movements, moods, and theatrics.
A truly Minnesotan endeavor, A Cat Named Taco was written J.S. Jenson and illustrated by Haylee Hovanec, hailing from Detroit Lakes and Audubon, Minnesota, respectively. Combining their talents for word, penchant for picture books, and affinity for felines, A Cat Named Taco is a nod to the secret lives of pets and the hijinks they get into when we are away. Created for children of all ages, A Cat Named Taco is filled with chunky illustrations and haiku structure that work on many levels, from a three-year-old read aloud to Middle school poetry primer.
