favorite quote: "It's simply that...CATS HATE BATHS!"
I was subbing in my daughter's 2nd grade class, when I came across this book. Knowing I would be surrounded by little people I didn't bother taking reading material. All year I have heard about Bad Kitty, so I decided it was time to read it. It only took about 30 minutes, tops.
Bad Kitty Gets a Bath is a story about a kitty who gets dirty and needs a bath. It's a how-to guide, complete with diagrams and a dictionary in the back.I loved this book. Th illustrations are very funny, especially the one of kitty after the bath. It is funny to read about what could possibly happen if you gave kitty a bath. Kids love this book, they laugh at the funny pictures and story. I really enjoyed the added notes from the editor when things became too harsh for children! Those were really funny.

Oh dear, I shudder to think about how it'll end if I give my cat a bath. Another good cat book is Mister Pusskins. So cute!
How fun! What I love is the idea of a how-to in a storybook. Your bookblog.ning friend.
