I am lucky that my kids love reading as much as I do. I remember the days that it was a struggle to get my oldest to read. It was a process and part of the switch was due to finding books that he really enjoyed. Now having several readers in the mix, it's always fun to find books - or series - that the whole group enjoys.
Topping the list lately is the Bad Kitty series by Nick Bruel.
L.C. is cat obsessed (that might be the understatement of the year), and was instantly drawn to the idea of reading a series about a silly kitty who wrecks havoc on her owners home. Over the summer she read Bad Kitty Joins the Team, and since it has a soccer ball on it (and soccer is his favorite sport), Cute picked up the book and read it too.
The stories are laugh out loud funny, and have the best illustrations to accompany the hilarious antics of Bad Kitty.
The kids love them so much that when I saw there was a fun activity they could participate in leading up to the latest release in the series, I instantly reached out to the Bad Kitty team to ask if we could have a little fun of our own.

I would love to give this set to my granddaughter. She was having a struggle with reading, but after extra help has started to enjoy reading more. This series of books would be perfect for her. She would love them I’m sure.
