Good grief reading the alphabet four times made me want to cry. I'd give it two stars but my son would give it more. However, he also asked for it to be returned to the library after a mere 4 days (a short length record). I'm hoping the other bad kitty books don't make you read the alphabet a gazillion times. I'd like to read some more of them so long as they aren't all in this same vein.So you think cats are for your entertainment, fella?Bad Kitty has its share of legends.Loved the graphical evidences collected by the author and presented to the court in an organized A-Z sorting.*GEAR UP FOR A FELINE INVASION
This bad kitty does everything in the alphabet, more than once. I laughed out loud. It's irreverant and would be truly appreciated by any child who ever had to face life in a house with a maniacly moody cat. If you have kitties instead of kids you will love this book, even if you need to give it to some kid or family you know just to keep up appearances.
Nick Bruel knows cats. His illustrations of the cat are so fun as good kitty turns to bad kitty and back to good kitty as a result of not having food. Along the way we get 4 turns through the alphabet. Healthy food that kitty doesn't want to eat (Dill, Garlic, Horseradish, etc.), bad kitty deeds as a result of being hungry (Bit grandma, Clawed the curtains, Devoured my new book, etc.), foods kitty gets excited about (Elephant Eggs, Fried Flies, Goose Goulash, etc.) and good kitty deeds now that
Oh come now, what kitty is ever really bad? They're too cute to stay mad at for long anyway!
When the food is not to Kitty's liking, she becomes a very, very, bad, bad BAD kitty. From A-Z sorting we learn of the foods Kitty doesn't like and the bad behaviors she performs. When the narrator comes back from grocery shopping, Kitty changes to a very, very, good, good, good kitty. From A-Z sorting we learn the foods Kitty likes and the good behaviors she performs. This delightful book has imaginative pictures and alphabetical texts. It was a fun read.
A bit long. I did not like the first Alphabet list. A list of healthy food items. The second was silly and thought my 5 yr old son, D would like it or laugh but he didn't. I also liked the last list of all the good things Bad Kitty did when he became happy however I think this book sends a bad message. Act bad when you don't get your way, then when you get your way act good
