This is such a cute picture book. I love all the interesting sound words like "wringle, wrangle" and "zim-zam." The kitten captures the joy and mishaps of a child's energetic play, and I love all the dotted lines that convey a sense of motion.

It took me until the end of the book to realize the larger cat and dog were supposed to be the kitten's parents (I still find it a little weird that we're supposed to think the dog is the kitten's father). But overall, I think parents will appreciate (and recognize in their own children) the kitten's rambunctious day, while kids will love all the funny words.

Best part, the watercolor illustrations are lovely.

Cats are fun .This book is about a very happy kitten who finds his favourite toy that brings him immense joy.
But how he needs infact every child needs mother's comforting embrace after every adventure or misadventure.
Cute ,good enough.

Joy was the story or a cat chasing adventure and fun. The cat gets into all kinds of tricky situations but usually turns out okay. In the end she needs the comfort of her Momma and she's off and ready for adventure again. Great simple rhyming book with easy illustrations and fun for toddlers.
