BAD KITTY FOR PRESIDENT












Author (last name first): Bruel, Nick
Publisher,Date of Publication: Square Fish / August 21, 2012
Grade Level/ or Age Level:  
Ages 7 and up
Classification: 
Fiction 


Bad Kitty the beloved series of picture books has now expanded into chapter books uneasily. This time the Bad Kitty tries to run for president against another nneighborhood cat. If there are children who are familiar with the kitty with and attitude this look at the ins and outs of running for office may appeal. Otherwise the author attempts to pile too much useful information into the kitty series and the result is not as funny as the kitty was without a useful agenda. Still, the useful information  becomes a somewhat painless way to get information on the facts associated with running for office. It may be a means to an end that normally kids would accept without some sugarcoating. This is not an essential purchase for libraries unless you have an audience that wants all Bad Kitty titles.
