Ezra Jack Keats (March 11, 1916 – May 6, 1983) was an American writer and illustrator of children's books. Keats wrote A Letter to Amy and Hi, Cat! but he was most famous for The Snowy Day. It is considered one of the most important American books of the 20th century. Keats is best known for introducing multiculturalism into mainstream American children's literature

Hi, Cat! Macmillan (now Viking), 1970. Archie is walking down the street eating an ice cream cone. It’s a beautiful day, and he is on his way to meet his best friend Peter.

Hi, Cat! Macmillan (now Viking), 1970. Suddenly stopped by a newcomer to his neighborhood, Archie says, Hi, cat! The cat sits, looks him up and down, and purrs. It turns out to be the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Keats’s vibrant palette brings this humorous, fast-paced story to life.

Ezra Jack Keats was an American writer and illustrator of children's books. He was one of the first children’s book authors to use an urban setting for his stories and he developed the use of collage as a medium for illustration.

Have you heard the tale? John Henry was born with a hammer in his hand.

Like most of Keats' books, this is less of a STORY story than just a retelling of a kid's day. I think that's what makes them so good, actually - they're very realistic.

So Archie is walking to play with the other kids, and he casually says "Hi" to a random cat. And the cat follows him. Archie goofs off for a bit, pretending that he has a beard instead of a popsicle stain on his chin, and that he's a monster in a giant paper bag (the cat ruins that by climbing around inside), and that the dog Willie is really very tall (the cat ruins that by hopping on the fence so Willie chases him). Actually, everything goes wrong because of the cat, as his friend notes! But Archie isn't so sure.

When he gets home, he tells the whole story to his mother, who thinks it's good that the cat left. What a pain! But we can see the whole scene - as Archie tells his mother that he thinks the cat just kinda of liked him, we can see the cat sitting on the stoop. Hee :)

There's not much that really happens in the story. There's no moral message, there's no zany slapstick humor, there's none of... any of that. It's just a simple story about a kid being a kid. You definitely want this (and most of Keats' books, for that matter) on your bookcase. Some 40 years after they were first published, and they're just as great now as they were then.

Good illustrations but the book reads a bit strangely. Could be more conducive to the age group.

This book is a gem. The author fills a void in children's literature and I love all of his work.
It was such a joy to find a brand new copy of "Hi, Cat" with which to gift my grandson.
Shipping was fast and the book was just exactly as advertised and at a very fair price.
Thank you.
