Big cats are cute, look cuddly, and seem like they'd be a fun pet to have because they're so big! But they're nacho average house cats. Meet a Belize jaguar and find out why!

As pretty as jaguars and other big cats are-they are not pets! Learn the differences between big cats and house cats in a fun, inventive new book called Nacho House Cat. By using funny comparisons between a wild jaguar and a house cat, like...

What they eat.Where they bathe.How they communicate.When they play.

...children can learn important, accurate facts about these gorgeous animals!

Nacho House Cat started as an educational idea. Ashley's goal with her new release is for kids to both learn the science facts about jaguars through the rhyming text and laughing hysterically at silly images that back up the idea that jaguars are... nacho house cat! To accomplish this, she teamed with Dr. Michael Windelspecht, a biologist at Inspire EdVentures who works with jaguar education projects in Belize.

This early reader book features vibrant illustrations and an easy-to-understand narrative. It's intended for children ages two and up to around eight years old. However, any-aged child with a love for reading, animals, and the world around them will find it enjoyable.

Fans of Dr. Seuss and Karen Beaumont will resonate with the rhyme scene, the illustrations, and the silly-but-educational structure of Nacho House Cat.
