KIRKUS REVIEWS
"The playful rhymes really add to the fun. I can picture kids repeating the phrases louder and longer every time. The little kitty was like a superhero, racing around with confidence and excitement. The illustrations by Brian Martin are bright, energetic, and expressive; Hopper's expressions made me smile. The feline’s experiences show how imagination can transform an ordinary day into something special. Those looking for stories about cats, pets, and rhyming journeys will want to pick this one. It would be a strong addition to homes, classrooms, and libraries."
–Readers’ Favorite
"The silly plot is ideal for young readers, prioritizing wordplay over a complex narrative. Martin’s digital illustrations entertainingly depict Hopper’s dynamic nature as he gets into mischief with bright colors and animated expressions. The author writes that a portion of the proceeds from the book will go to rescue and adoption organizations—a mission that will certainly resonate with animal lovers of all ages.
A delightful picture book for compassionate cat people."
