review 1: This is the cat version of what most parents of young children go through. Mother cat calls to Kitty Cat to ask if he is doing a specific task – waking up, getting dressed, cleaning himself, only to have Kitty Cat reply with an excuse why he isn’t doing it. This goes back and forth until the very last page when Kitty Cat apologizes for being so slow getting ready for school. The last picture you see is Mother Cat driving him to school.
review 2: Now that Harriet can read she is taking a more active role in choosing her library books. She is returning to old favorite authors, like Bill Martin Jr. A recent find of his is Kitty Cat, Kitty Cat, Are You Waking Up?This book explores the morning routine of a young kitten as he gets ready for school. Parents and
... more school aged children will recognize the speed bumps in the routine: it's hard to get up, it's hard to pick out the right outfit, food is more fun to play with than eat, and so forth.Bill Martin Jr. has a knack with rhythms and making a short list of easy to read words fun to read. His poetry is also memorable. The combination of phonetically easy words and memorable lines made for a hit with Harriet. She read the book about a dozen times before we had to return it to the library. Weeks later she is still quoting from it. less

Just a miss for Squirt. His love for cats has waned considerably.
