Bad Kitty by Nick Bruel – Book Review
Bad Kitty by Nick Bruel was a quick favorite with my then
kindergarten kiddo. Unlike many other things she loved back then, she hasn't
'outgrown' the Bad Kitty books. She squealed with excitement just last week
(now a 4th grader) when she saw that the library had the newest book
in the Bad Kitty series.
The first Bad Kitty book (above) is a picture/alphabet book
with one letter for the alphabet for each food Bad Kitty can try when they run
out of her regular food, then again for each naughty thing Bad Kitty does, and
then another one for each nice thing she does to make up for it. So it takes
you through the alphabet several times. However, unlike most alphabet books,
the words are not simple. I found it as amusing as my kids do.
The other books featuring Bad Kitty, however, are short
chapter books, heavy with illustrations. They were perfect for my daughter when
she was a strong enough for longer stories and chapters, but still intimidated
by big blocks of text. She would read each book over and over again, and I
could hear her giggling every time.
