Review

As with most cats, Princess Kitty thinks she rules her household and that all the humans are her servants. A party is being thrown, and Princess Kitty knows it is for her. The illustrations show us that the party is a birthday for the daughter. The book carries on in this vein, with Kitty assuming all the preparations are for her and the illustrations making it clear what's really happening. While the juxtaposition between Kitty's assumptions and the actuality of the illustrations is meant to be humorous, it doesn't quite get there. Not worthy of purchase.

Overall Book Score: fair
