Witch Cat review

 Witch Cat by Lucy Rowland

With illustrations by the award-winning Laura Hughes, this charming, delightfully rhyming story about finding where you belong is perfect for Halloween!(goodreads summary)

 

 

  

Pippin has always wondered if there was more to life than being a witch's cat.  Could he be a pirate's cat?  Maybe he could try being a pet cat?  But when Pippin decides to set off to find answers to his questions, he learns that something is missing and just doesn't feel quite right. 
 
Get ready for Halloween with this fun and delightful story about a cat looking for something different to do with his life other than being a witch's cat.  It is a sweet and simple story about finding where you belong.  The rhyming text flows nicely and the bold illustrations makes this a great read aloud. Kids will have fun seeing the various adventures Pippin goes on while trying to determine which life suits him best.  There is plenty of humor to make the little ones giggle as well.  Nothing seems right for Pippin until he sees something that reminds him of home. It is then that he realizes where he truly is meant to be.  This is the perfect story for the Halloween season and will be a favorite for all.  I think this is a "just right book" for ages 3-6.~
