***My Personal Review***
I think books for children that use animals to teach lessons are awesome! My daughter is 7 and she loved this book too :) Chester is a lazy cat who reminds the reader just a bit of Garfield and he never thinks of anyone but himself! But one day that all changes because he finds that he can no longer meow or cry out. He runs all over the place trying to find his meow and gets himself into a sticky situation. But it teaches children that they must appreciate what they have and enjoy their lives, which is something that a lot of kids nowdays don't do. And Chester finding his meow again after his terrifying day teaches them that if you continue to try you will succeed and come through anything :)
The illustrations in this book are so cute! It reminds me of oil paintings, but Chester is this gorgeous tiger cat and he stands out on every page. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this and my daughter thought it was a very cute story so I am sure that kids of all ages can relate to it. I will definitely be looking for more books by Angela Muse as she is a great writer!
