Izzy the cat in Catmagic is “blotchy and splotchy from tail-tip to head.”The cats that kids draw after reading it are a riot of colour in dozens of different ways – ripples, stripes, spots, dots, and even dashes, as first-grader Cade did so uniquely here.I think his multicoloured cat is quite beautiful! And very original for a six-year-old. I met him at Adjala Public School in Loretto, Ontario, last week.I’ll tell you more about the creative kids at this school soon, with some pictures of their hanging witches and wildly varied soup bowls.SPRING SCHOOL VISITS: Visits, e-mail me  or call 416/960-9996.Loris
