What’s inside...
Part of Logan Powell’s creative My Sticker Paintings series, this hands-on activity book invites children to build ten lifelike cat portraits— from a fiery Red Maine Coon to a playful Scottish Fold—using more than 1,400 geometric stickers. Each perforated page presents a numbered template and a matching sticker sheet, encouraging careful observation, number recognition, color matching, and the satisfaction of watching an image gradually emerge. Brief informational captions introduce fun facts about each featured breed, blending art practice with light nonfiction reading.
