Evaluation comments:
“This is a “feel good” book about kittens helping each other overcome their fears. One kitten is afraid of riding a bigger bike, one of climbing down a ladder from a tree, one of talking to kittens they do not know, etc.”
“It’s a cute story and one that my daughter experiences herself when the weekends come to an end.”
“The quality of the writing is good. It’s easy to read and flows well with good examples of teamwork and the power of positive thinking and good attitudes.”
“The illustrations are very cute.”
“I like that each kitten overcomes their fears with the help of their friends.”
“The book is educational as well- the kittens count down from 10 to help go down the ladder. They also talk about the days of the week and what things they like on each day.”
“We read a ton at our house, so it’s nice to add new books to our library. My daughter experiences the Sunday Scaries herself, so this is a great book for putting that into perspective and overcoming it.”
“The illustrations are bright and colorful.”
“I like this book a lot! It was just a refreshing book about being kind, working together and being positive. I like the honesty of each of the kittens, expressing their fears and the simple ways that their fears are overcome.”
