"The poems tell an accessible, compelling story--like a good free-verse novel, but even briefer--while exposing readers to some skillful writing. Rylant's poems contain lines worthy of any lit-crit analysis." - Horn Book
"Makes a great introduction for readers not comfortable with poetry. The poems tell an accessible, compelling story . . . Warm and tender."--The Horn Book
"It's a grand experience, this set of poems, this rumination on the cat and the human condition. Everyone with a pet (and without) will read and remember this title, and come back to it."--School Library Journal
