One of the first things most people find out about me is that I am an ailurophile (which means that I like cats). I read as many books about cats that I come across whether fiction or non-fiction, for children or adults. Recently I came across the Bad Kitty books by Nick Bruel. There are four of them, Bad Kitty, Bad Kitty Gets A Bath, Happy Birthday Bad Kitty and the latest Bad Kitty Vs Uncle Murphy (plus another book called Poor Puppy about Bad Kitty’s canine companion). Bad Kitty reminds me of my cat Ebony, black fur and a prickly personality. Bad Kitty behaves in typical feline ways such as doing everything possible to not get a bath (I would get seriously hurt if I tried to give Ebony a bath) and the illustrations of Bad Kitty and her feline companions add much to the stories. There are also little facts about cats scattered among the pages so you learn things as well. While these books are marked as junior they are just as enjoyable for adults so why not bring Bad Kitty home with you today?
