My daughter has enjoyed this book since she was about a year old. We have two cats, but neither one of them wanted to have anything to do with my daughter, and she was very frustrated that she couldn't hold them. This book solved the problem. It's very large, and the pictures are very expressive of typical kitten behavior. My daughter expecially loved the page where the cat asks to be tickled -- it didn't take her long to figure out how to do that! Now that she's three, and old enough to be able to approach the cats right, she can hold them and pet them. But every so often she pulls this book off of the shelf and asks to read it. It's not the kind of book that's going to be beloved by children for generations, but it's worth having if you have a toddler who likes animals.

This is cute, but very tiny! Its only 3 inches long on either side. Its pages are simple and short but still got my toddlers attention. I can't say its durable though, the corners fray quickly compared to other board books I have.The price is $3 at the time of this review, for what you get its not in my opinion worth it. I got a far more durable one for just a dollar more that is holding up way better then this one. My daughter is rough with her books so I always try to find something that lasts.

I bought this book today and have been quite pleased with it. It's a short and simple book, with each page describing a kitten named Lucky and the things he does, such as climbing and seeing in the dark. The art is beautiful, with a perfect balance between cuteness and realism, and with enough detail to avoid being boring, yet not so much to confuse the youngest readers. The book itself is shaped like a kitten as well. Potential buyers should note that there are two editions of this available, a small "Pocket Kitten" version about the size of a Post-It note, and a larger version. This review is based on the pocket version, though I suspect the two are much the same. Pocket Kitten is a wonderful addition to the bookshelf of any child young enough to enjoy board books, or anyone of any age who appreciates cute kitten art.

This book is BIG! Great for little ones that love big pictures. Easy to turn board pages and very easy to understand words for the little ones. My baby loves it and I do too! :) I highly recommend the Great Pals Puppy as well.
