NATIONAL BESTSELLER • The first book of a purr-fectly irresistible graphic novel series about friendship, superheroes, and cats—lots of cats! “Readers will revel in the heroic antics.”— The New York Times “Ideal for readers seeking the whimsy of Dav Pilkey’s 'Dog Man' tempered with the reassuring tone of Raina Telgemeier’s work.”— School Library Journal Twelve-year-old Katie is dreading a boring summer alone in New York City while her best friend is away at camp—something that's way out of Katie and her mom's budget. That is, unless Katie can figure out a way to earn the money for camp herself. But when Katie gets a job cat sitting for her mysterious upstairs neighbor, Madeline, life gets interesting. For starters, Madeline has 217 cats (!) and they're not exactly . . . normal. Also, why is she always out EXACTLY when the city's most notorious villain commits crimes?! Is it possible that Katie's upstairs neighbor is really a super villain? Can Katie wrangle a whole lot of wayward cats, save a best friendship (why is Beth barely writing back? And who's this boy she keeps talking about?!), AND crack the biggest story in the city's history? Some heroes have capes . . . Katie has cats! With irresistible illustrations and laugh-out-loud humor, Katie the Catsitter is a feline-friendly adventure that shows how, with the right catitude, anything is pawsible!

11 year-old boy approved
My nephew (11) loves cats but I wasn’t sure if he would think this was too “girly” (he’s started to get into more spooky graphic novels). But he really enjoyed this and finished it in a single day.

Fun and adorable.
This would have been five stars from me, but I felt the book struggles until it gets to the cats. In fact, it was a three stars from me until the cats were introduced. The cats show up early on and from that point through to the end, the book is a solid five stars. I laughed aloud at some of the cat antics. The storyline might be a bit political. If your child reads it, you’ll need to explain that something what is right for a comic book character doesn’t always translate to real life. I’d think kids would get that on their own, but a lot of kids are basically raising themselves and miss out on a lot. I think any cat lover, adult or tween, would love this.

Super
I have to admit that I didn't expect this story to centre around a Superhero. But then again,who has over 200 cats...? So,with my disbelief well and truly suspended,the story fairly rockets along. Saving up for summer camp by doing odd jobs,really odd jobs... I really like the picture of Katie with her arms on the balcony,cats about her ankles and the mysterious figure in the background against the moon. A classic scene that never gets old,brilliant. Some parts of the story are a little far fetched,but well,why not. It's only for entertainment and it certainly does that. Oh,and as for the cats,they remind me of the animated Disney film The Aristocats where they can play musical instruments and dance,ha ha. I suspect this would make a great bedtime story You know,sinc

A young cat lovers favorite.
I bought this book for my daughter for Christmas. She was skeptical but once she opened the book she couldn't stop reading. It is a fun book for young cat loving readers. Was definitely a great buy!

Great book
Was such a great book I had to order the rest in the series. She's now telling me when the next one will be out and giving me a count down.
