Review

This is a very sweet early reader about a shy kitten that wanders off and needs to find its mother. The story, although simple, still makes sense and the young reader will really feel like they are reading a story with a beginning, middle and an end. Words are repeated on several pages which is helpful and the drawings illustrate many of the items the story talks about. The drawings themselves are cute and will appeal to young children. This book would be a nice addition to an early reader collection.

Overall Book Score: very good
