Absolutely a page-turning hit!
Mystery, humour, friendship, family…! This graphic novel has such an engaging story-line, compelling characters, and laugh-out-loud moments!
The illustrations bring the story to life, and I loved the expressions for every character.

Totally ready for the sequel…!

OMN! Okay, I'm a cat nut. We know this. So of course I would grab the book titled "Katie the Catsitter" immediately. (Amusingly enough, I was often the catsitter for my friend Katie when she lived in state!)

This was such a fun book. There are superheroes, supervillains, and 217 cats that can do cool shit!

This was so cute! I loved the illustrations, and the cats were so fun! Can’t wait to recommend this to middle grade readers!

This book was another Blue Hen nomination for the year. It was a really cute book, but unfortunately it just wasn't for me. The artwork was amazing, but I found the story a little lacking. I enjoyed the overall feel for it though with the superheroes as well. It was humorous and cute and I'm sure that kids would very much enjoy the book, it just wasn't for me. That's not a bad thing. I will still definitely recommend this to the kids at my library, especially to the cat lovers out there!
