It’s Valentine’s Day and Splat has a special valentine for a certain someone in his class. Her name is Kitten, and Splat likes her even more than fish sticks and ice cream.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Kindergarten-Grade 2—In this follow-up to Splat the Cat (HarperCollins, 2008), the fuzzy black feline learns that bigger isn't better when it comes to Valentine's Day cards. Splat has a crush on Kitten, a fluffy white cat with pea-green eyes, but he isn't the only one. Self-assured Spike informs Splat that he likes her much more and has prepared a superior Valentine to prove it. Discouraged, Splat tosses his tribute into the trash. Kitten smiles as she receives Spike's card but doesn't swoon as she reads, "You are so lucky that I like you." Happily, she notices the little red envelope in the trash and surprises Splat with a pink Valentine that leaves him grinning from ear to ear. The cartoon-style illustrations have a contemporary, quirky feel due to the monochromatic palette, which is punctuated with brightly colored details. Children will giggle at Splat's awkward interactions with Kitten and smile at the story's satisfying conclusion.—Lisa Glasscock, Columbine Public Library, Littleton, CO

From Booklist

The lovable but insecure feline from Splat the Cat (2008) returns to celebrate Valentine’s Day. He has a crush on Kitten, but whenever they meet she pulls his ears, ties his tail, and calls him smelly. His classmate Spike—who has his own crush on Kitten—does his best to convince Splat that Kitten doesn’t return his affections. Fortunately, Kitten is able to see through Spike’s amorous professions, leading to a happy Valentine exchange. Scotton’s cartoon-style artwork features animals rendered in black-and-gray tones using vividly colored human accessories. A perfect choice for Valentine story hours or for Splat fans any time of the year. Preschool-Grade 1. --Kay Weisman --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book January 9, 2009
Format:Hardcover
My daughter (almost 3 years) and I have also read "Splat the Cat," but we prefer the sequel "Love, Splat." It is a funny story, about butterflies, love and of course hilarious kitty encounters. There are plenty of fun details for both kids and parents:

- did you know that cats like fish bone wallpaper?
- did you know that cats use a real toilet?
- did you know that cats have mouse pets (riding bikes)?
- did you know that the street names have real meaning?

You can not but love Splat. He is perhaps a bit clumsy, but so adorable. My daughter loves his books and keeps asking for more. Now there you have it: a winner! I love the book because it never gets boring (even if you have to read it over and over). My daughter and I give it four thumbs up!
