"I liked this book!! The little girl in Cats Are Great But... by Stepanka Sekaninova, illustrated by Adam Wolf wants a cat really badly, but how can she convince her parents to let her get a cat? The girl and reader learn a lot about cats in this book. I learned a lot about cats from this book. This is a great book to help other kids understand their cats too. I hope other kids read this so they can better understand their cat and why they act the way they do." —Kids Book Buzz
