Embracing them for who they are is essential for fostering a harmonious bond. The author skillfully incorporates this lesson into the storyline, providing a valuable takeaway for readers of all ages.



One of the highlights, from sharing this book with my students was enriching the storytelling experience by incorporating photographs of my cat to illustrate Cleos antics through real life situations. The children found it amusing and relatable creating a connection, to the story and its underlying message.



The book “Cattitude!” highlights the relationship between kids and their pets underscoring the love and acceptance that characterise this bond. Whether its through interactions or moments of independence cats represent a sense of individuality that’s both charming and easy to relate to.
