They all saw a cat (2016), written and illustrated by Brendan Wenzel, follows a curious cat as it walks through the world, observed by a series of different animals. Each encounter reveals how the cat is perceived through the unique sensory and cultural lens of the viewer: a child sees a friendly pet, a fish sees a looming shadow, a mouse sees a dangerous predator. Through its poetic repetition and striking visual shifts in style, the book highlights how perspective shapes our understanding of others. As the cat continues its journey, readers are invited to reflect on diversity, empathy, and the idea that there is no single way to see the world. The story ends with the cat seeing its own reflection, suggesting a gentle moment of self-awareness and the coexistence of multiple viewpoints.
