What I Liked:
My six year old daughter is a big fan of The Bad Kitty Series.
I am happy to report, that this latest installment is another winner, It has a fun story with a surprise happy ending that left us smiling, If you enjoy the Bad Kitty Series, I highly recommend this book,
What makes this series are the illustrations, I especially enjoyed the drawings of Kitty in this book, Kitty is having a bad day, and the pictures reflecting Kitty's bad mood are hilarious, I also love the drawings of lovable Uncle Murray, This is the perfect book to read to younger kids as there are illustrations on each and every page, so they always have something to look at while reading.

Like any Bad Kitty book, there is lots of humor, Kids will enjoy the laugh out antics of Puppy and Uncle Murray in this one,
The ending was adorable, I finished this one with a smile, Puppy truly saves the day in more ways than one,
I appreciated that Mr, Bruel included some information at the end of the book regarding pet adoption,
And The Not So Much:
Every Bad Kitty book has two or three sections in it with interesting facts.
This book has three parts that feature fun facts as to why dogs need to be walked, why dogs sniff butts and why dogs lick faces.
As an adult, I think these sections are funny and informative, My only hesitation is that these cut aways aren't pertinent to the story, and they tend to be aimed at more mature readers.
Younger kids will not understand the vocabulary or get some of the concepts, I noticed that my six year old tends to zone out a bit when I hit these parts, so I usually skip over them.
However, they do have some great fun facts, and I am sure older readers will love them.

Part of the book is about the dog shelter, Even though the author doesn't come right out and discuss the ugly truth about what happens to dogs who aren't adopted.
He glosses over it and it is implied, While I appreciated that he doesn't spell it out, I am sure if you have an older inquisitive reader, they will question you as to what is going on.
Be prepared to answer some hard, cruel facts of life,

Puppy's Big Day was one of our favorite books in the series to date, This book follows the easy going and lovable duo of Puppy and Uncle Murray as they spend the day out together and manage to get into some trouble.
This book is packed full of hilarious illustrations and bursting with humor, My young daughter is a big fan of this series, and I think these books are perfect to help instill excitement in younger readers.


I received a copy of this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
All

It was very entertaining to my youngest, Not sure if it's a good story, but something that my kids like is good enough for me.
Still funny but as the focus was not the cat who may in fact be a combination eel and howler monkey it was not as funny as the others.
to come courtesy of theYO, : This one has the LONGEST CHAPTERS! Makes bedtime reading onerous, : But Alex adores these books, so we'll keep reading, I adore all the Bad kitty books, and have been lucky enough to read them with some lovely kids.

Fabulous feline fun.
Bad Kitty is totally freaking out, so Uncle Murray comes over to save Puppy from the ordeal.
But then Uncle Murray ends up having quite a few hiccups in puppy watching,

Wow, Bad Kitty's town must have the most bored cops in the country to be constantly on Uncle Murray like that.
Poor guy. Things end well, though, with Puppy figuring out why Bad Kitty has been freaking out and a pet shelter adoption story.
The characters in the shelter were quite entertaining, Hand this one to reluctant readers who like animals and silly stories, I love this book so much because I love the characters in it, It reminds me of my cats, My favorite part is when Uncle Murray says "Hey, You!!" I also thought it was funny when they showed a picture of poop and said this is poop.
This is another great Bad Kitty book, Puppy's sweetness toward Bad Kitty wins our hearts! Love this whole series! Puppy has an adventure with Uncle Murray that mostly involves Uncle Murray being harassed by a police officer about leash laws, pet registration, and other such ordinances.
Some other dogs are also introduced, but they cannot offset the absence of Bad Kitty, It's hard to admit as a dog person, but that surly cat really carries this series, This one has such a cute ending!

, Focused on Puppy amp Uncle Murray typically much more minor characters from the Bad Kitty books, the book is easy to read for/with young readers while still having enough silliness and humor to keep an adult from getting bored.
It does faintly hint at euthanasia for animals at the pound/shelter so parents of younger kids may want to be prepared for possible questions.
Kitty is in such a bad mood, that Uncle Murray has to take puppy for a walk.
However, during the walk several mishaps occur, and puppy ends up at the dog pound, Puppy meets a few new pals while there, and all are rescued by Uncle Murray, Kitty reveals horrible, but true facts about dog's behavior, and several breeds of dogs are described in the appendix.
Oh! And the reason behind Kitty's over the top bad mood of the day is revealed, I like this entire series, This was a book that I was given by my sister and although I did start to read it while enjoying the first few pages it definitely dropped from there.
The main character that the series is named for I am guessing barely made an appearance but instead was the drive for getting Puppy out of the house.
Although she added some comedy at the front it wasn't enough to warrant this book to be considered a part of the series.


Second of all there was quite a change in narrative, I truly did enjoy the story being told by the narrator as it seeming like you were just overhearing a conversation within the house itself but unfortunately the introduction of Uncle Murray threw that out the window.
Instead at that point it was like having to listen to a monologue by a very annoying guy who was overthinking and then every five seconds sucking up to someone whether it was the unseen bulliedmade officers trying to keep the law system or to a pup that didn't seem to care.


Puppy was made into a mute who had the most adorable facial expressions as well as Bad Kitty but the other animal characters ranged from being humanoid and being able to speak to either being very animalish while overly talking in their own monologues that were just random barks, woofs, growls, etc.
This completely threw me off from enjoying the rest of the story especially when you almost had a fiveminute piecebypiece on what her buttsniffing skills were picking up.


The fact that there were fun facts about dogs and cats included as well as two appendixes concerning dog breeds included and how to adopt couldn't save this sinking book from its own watery grave.
