Contrary to other reviews, I did not have to explain the 'bat,bat,bat' thing to them- they got it right away- at least the 4 and 6 year old did. All of them love the Putter books and this one especially- I think they see similarities between our cat and tabby. It involves several different animals as well as Mr Putter's quirky neighbor. This book in particular is my 5 year old son's favorite. One thing I really appreciate about it is that it teaches respect for the elderly. Five stars - I order another one every time I make an order with Amazon! Also I am just sure the artist has a cat - he makes the cat's expressions so real. My work is tutoring children in reading, and the kids love the stories too. Kids will love reading these beginning chapter books, which include Mr. Howard's detail-rich illustrations of these utterly charming characters perfectly complement Rylant's humorous, entertaining, and very readable stories. Putter and his skittish cat, Tabby, is a terrific boon for early readers.
