This was a sweet and simple story about the excitement of a little girl wanting to play with her pet cat. After a long day of playing alone, she learns a lesson about being patient and gentle with her pet. She even finds a fun surprise waiting for her! This would be a fun addition to any nursery or preschool classroom.

I love the rhyming. The illustrations are cute and colorful. It has a good message of being careful and giving pets space when they need it.

Perfect companion read for storytime! Adding this to recommend for classrooms. A really cute story! Loved the little lesson on patience and how to spend your time when kids can get a little ( a lot lol ) antzy.

This is cute and I liked the relationship between the mother and her little girl. I thought it was going to be a story about a little girl learning that cats really do just sleep most of the time, but instead they didn't notice the cat was pregnant and then they had several kittens too. I'm a huge animal advocate and think it's better to promote more responsibility with caring for our pets.

I read this with one of the young people I support and both them and myself really enjoyed it. It was engaging and easy to follow.

This is the perfect book if you are a parent that's seeking a book that teaches lidsnto be gente to cats or animals in general. It's a good book for toddlers.

The art and story were pretty cute, and I really enjoyed the depiction of the mother-toddler relationship. It was a little wordy for the age demographic, in my opinion. Thanks to the publisher and net galley for letting me read!
