Editorial Reviews

As if Splat the Cat didn't have enough problems! Now he's slated to sing on Parents' Night, but he consumed with stage fright. What can he do to battle his jitters?

K-Gr 2—Lovable and fuzzy Splat the Cat is back. The shy feline is filled with anxiety when he learns that his class will be performing on Parents' Night. He looks to his pet mouse, Seymour, for inspiration on how to be brave. Still, he worries as he commits himself to practice singing. At last the night arrives; Splat's performance is not perfect, but he does his best and has fun. This beginning chapter book is similar to the earlier titles in both monochromatic tone and style. Children who are familiar with them will recognize Splat's classmates, fun background details, and silly expressions. Unlike Splat himself, this offering doesn't fall flat.—Laura Butler, Mount Laurel Library, NJ
