Book Review: Don't Bite the Cat

Or the dog, or the hamster, or the fish!

Don't Bite the Cat, by Ryan Allen (Writers Republic, LLC, 2021, 28 pages, $25.99 HC, $12.35 PB, up to age 12*)

A lovely way of teaching a fun, “hidden” lesson.

After reading once, nearly every child can read it to Mom or Dad because the illustrations fit so well to the story, plus the words and phrases repeat almost exactly (with four 'chapters').

The simple graphics are just busy enough with different parts emphasized and modified on each page, according to the story.

And remember, don't bite the cat, hit the dog, kick the hamster or poke the fish. Instead, love them because they love us!
