The funniest kitty I know

A few years ago, my daughter saw the cover of the book "Bad Kitty". The surly look on the kitty's face made her smile, so she had to pick up the book. From then on, we have been enjoying the "Bad Kitty" series. There are books for the young (k-gr2) and chapter books for older (Age 9-12).

According to my daughter- "Bad Kitty books are very very very funny!!!!!!!!!!" Yep, three verys and 10 exclamation marks. She was very specific. :)

The book that started it all

This book is great for Kindergarten to Grade 2. It is a very funny alphabet book. The book starts out and Kitty hears there is no cat food, and thinks she will need to eat some type of healthy food (from Asparagus to Zucchini). So, kitty does bad things in the house. Then, the owner comes back with great food, so Kitty tries to do nice things to make up for her misdeeds.

This version has little bits taken off of it -- just like a cat ate it.

“The one series that can change my daughters mood from sad to laughing hysterically.”

Poor Puppy

If your child liked Bad Kitty, they should like Poor Puppy. This is a counting/alphabet book, talking about the puppy that lives with Bad Kitty.

From the description -- Who else but Nick Bruel could combine the alphabet, a counting game, a whirlwind geography course, and a screamingly funny story... all in 40 pages?
