As many others, I love Grumpy Cat. Technically, I feel sorry for her since she is a pet cat that has been put in the spotlight by her owner's brother and later, after she had become an internet sensation, by her owner (there's even a movie about her / starring her)!
Her real name is Tardar Sauce by the way and she is a mixed breed getting her famous appearance from an underbite and feline dwarfism.

Anyway, this is a cute little picture book of Grumpy Cat and Pokey, the "other cat" in the house. Pokey is thrilled about Christmas, the lights, the snow outside and basically everything, while Grumpy Cat - naturally - isn't thrilled. But Pokey is determined to get Grumpy Cat to join in on the fun, leading to some hilarious situations.

The book is filled with really good art that even manages to sneak in a pun. I loved the illustrations very much as they were colourful and cute (except when portraying Grumpy Cat, of course, she's never "cute" *sarcasm mode off*). ;)
Some examples:



I laughed a lot while reading this since I can't escape the charm of Grumpy Cat either (aren't we all grumpy cats?!) and can therefore recommend this to people on the love AND hate spectrum of Christmas.
