Pickles vs the Zombies by Angela Misri

5.0

Pickles vs the Zombies is a lot of fun. If you like cats and zombies, this book is for you. If you like horses, dogs, raccoons, and hamsters you'll like it even more.

Pickles the cat is on a quest to find her "pet" (a human child). To find him she must venture outdoors. This is scary enough for an indoor house cat let alone one confronted by zombies, evil opossums, nasty humans and more. Well named, Pickles finds herself in one pickle after another. Although new to the great outdoors, she is smart, well-read and brave, and before long she's surrounded by loyal companions with lots of personality and just the right skill set.

Will all that be enough to help her succeed in her quest? Probably. It is a kids book, after all. But the fun is in the journey in this funny, warm-hearted, progressive, and completely original take on the zombie genre.
