5.0 out of 5 stars A cute story that children and adults alike can enjoy!, March 10, 2003

This review is from: Meowth, The Big Mouth (Pokemon Junior Chapter Book) (Paperback)

This book is a novelization of "Go West, Young Meowth!" (one of the best Pokemon episodes of all time). The episode and the book tell the story of Meowth's past -- how he taught himself to walk on two legs, read, and talk, how he tried to win the love of the beautiful but shallow Meowsie, and how he came to join Team Rocket. Parts of the story are sad for poor Meowth, but Jessie and James come to the rescue and prove just how much they love him. They show him that even if he doesn't fit in with his fellow Meowths, he's still their best friend, and they'll do anything for him. The book's large print, simple writing style, and heartwarming message of friendship make this an excellent story for young children to read. (And even we older TR fans can enjoy it because it shows Jessie, James, and Meowth as they truly are -- beautiful characters who love each other deeply. ^_^)

This review is from: Meowth, the Big Mouth (Library Binding)

The story opens with an announcement that Hollywood is releasing a film about Pokemon. But we are never told very much about the movie. This announcement seems to be a mere pretext to reunite Meowth with his former acquaintances.

Moreover, I cannot understand why the book is not better illustrated. Instead of illustrations which relate directly with the story, we are to be satisfied with already existing pictures of Pokemon characters.
