Bad Cat Razzle-Dazzles

When I started reading my 2-year old son a nightly bedtime story, we read a different book nearly every night. Now, we read Bad Cat Puts on His Top Hat every night. I thought the story was a little disorganized, but my son loves the occasional rhymes and the bright artwork, especially the first picture, a detailed panorama we love to look at closely to find all the planes, dogs, cats, squirrels, etc. Now my son is almost 3, and we've taken to counting all the cupcakes we see. I think he'll always remember this book!

Fun and frolics with Bad Cat

I just love the quirky artwork in this book - and more importantly so do my sons. The bold, bright pictures are very appealing with all sorts to look at, explore and discuss. The story grabs the younger reader with fun rhymes and humourous stories. This book is a real favourite.

You will read this 5 million times.....

Moms and Dads, a warning: if you buy it, you're going to read it a LOT! :) Bad Cat is a well-intentioned (albeit a little naughty) cat who lives in a "huge dirty city. He called it the Big Stinky." I could recite this book for anyone who asks because my almost 2-year old is absolutely in love with it. This is actually the second in the Bad Cat catalog, but we owned this one first. Though probably not the most eloquently-written book, it sure provides a laugh for kids and for parents. Chararcters' names include Baxter Bunnyteeth, Mr. Sausagefingers, and Teddy Fatcheeks (pretty funny coming out of the mouth of a chatty 20-month old, I promise you). The illustrations are interesting and funny and our misunderstood hero prevails in the end. Three cheers for Bad Cat and his beloved Big Stinky!
