Cats Don't Like Christmas!: A Hilarious Holiday Children's Book for Kids Ages 3-7 by Andy Wortlock
funny
lighthearted
fast-paced
3.5
A big thank-you to NetGalley, the author, and publisher for giving me a copy of this book for an unbiased review.
3.5/5
This is a very cute and funny book about cats and their antics around Christmastime! I definitely had a good chuckle at the sassy poem and it is very festive. It's also a unique Christmas story that explores how Christmastime can be a bit irritating as well as exciting, especially for the felines in our families. I also really liked how there was a hidden game of finding a mouse and yarn on each page. The illustrations were fantastic and bright - I think this book would be well enjoyed by younger readers.
The only reason my review isn't higher is because the book jumps from cats not liking Christmas to all of a sudden loving it without any clear reason as to why. I would have preferred it if there was a page or two with the cat reluctantly realizing that Christmas isn't so bad, because the resolution is quite sudden.
