5.0 out of 5 starsWhat Miss Kelley Is Reading: [...]
By Lea Kelley on October 3, 2010
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
I have purchased at least five copies of the original Bad Kitty picture book so far, as it is my go-to gift for the youngest readers I know, and it's a book that can hold up to multiple readings. The first two books, Bad Kitty and Poor Puppy, are traditional picture books that cover ABCs and counting. The three books that follow (Bad Kitty Gets A Bath; Happy Birthday, Bad Kitty; and Bad Kitty vs. Uncle Murray) are chapter books that still have many pictures, and are designed to bridge the gap between picture books and traditional chapter books.

The Bad Kitty books are hilarious, and Bad Kitty is a great character. In this book, the unseen human owners are going away, and Uncle Murray is left in charge of Kitty and Puppy. Those familiar with Kitty's personality know that this can't end well. Kitty's adventures with Uncle Murray are broken up by Uncle Murray's informational asides about why cats act like they do. Kitty and Uncle Murray do make peace in time for the owners return, and the owners have brought with them something that is sure to make young readers (and this adult reader) very excited for the next book.

5.0 out of 5 starsA terrific new adventure for Bad Kitty!
By Carol W on September 24, 2010
Format: Hardcover
I love the Bad Kitty series and "Bad Kitty vs. Uncle Murray" is hysterical. I just got the book and I finished it already. I have even read it again! I think it might be my favorite Bad Kitty book so far. My parents want to read it too. My mom is a Bad Kitty fan like me. I love Nick Bruel's books and I can't wait for the next one!

By JLO on September 24, 2010
Format: Hardcover
This book was purchased by my daughter on her own at the book fair- SHE LOVED IT and the Happy Birthday book as well. We are definitely hooked on Bad Kitty and all of the other author's books. We have been searching all around town trying to find his other releases. We are a fan for life.

By Pacshc on March 19, 2012
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
All the "Bad Kitty" books are a great treat for the grandkids. I like to buy them and keep a few on hand just incase they are not feeling great - cheers them up real fast. Also instead of can for Valentines Day I give them a book.

By J. Cameron on December 13, 2012
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
My daughter just loves the Bad Kitty series and so do I! It is exciting and funny with great pictures to keep her interested. The author isn't afraid to use big words and there is a glossary in the back for definitions. Lots of fun for the beginner reader!

3.0 out of 5 starsThey still like the Bad Kitty stories in this format
By Profjan on April 11, 2015
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
I wish that every book in this series was printed in hardback with full color illustrations. The Christmas book is so enjoyable to share with my grandchildren. They still like the Bad Kitty stories in this format, but they aren't as visually engaging.

5.0 out of 5 starsPeals of laughter, heartfelt sentiments, and crazy fun
By Elizabeth F. on April 4, 2011
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
I have never written a review of a book on Amazon before, but I just had to add a comment to this one. Never ever before has my daughter had a book that caused her to break into peals of laughter at each page (and myself as well).

Bad kitty is literally a scream. Nervous and crazy, she has an out-of-control imagination and deep-rooted paranoia. Her companion dog always has exactly the same stupid grin on his face, and I assume this depiction is because this is how Bad Kitty sees him. The book's illustrations are minimalistic, still conveying characterizations and frenetic action perfectly. I love how the author changes up the pace, stopping the story at times to explain why a cat acts the way it acts, or to have Uncle Murray explain why he loves animals so much...a story within a story that seems so sweet and genuinely heartfelt, it actually brings a tear to my eye each time I read it.

When getting this book, I would definitely recommend the other two in the series, "Bad Kitty Gets a Bath" and "Bad Kitty's Birthday", as it introduces and develops some other characters, like the neighborhood cats, that reappear in "Bad Kitty and Uncle Murray". The new one out... the one about the baby, we will also buy when it comes out. We are now dedicated fans!

However, Uncle Murray is far and away the one my daughter likes the best, and I'm actually thinking of getting the hardcover, because our paperback may not stand up to the amount of re-reading this book is going to continue to get, as each person who comes to our house is required by our daughter to read and enjoy it with her.

5.0 out of 5 starsHilarious!!!
By A. ODELL on April 2, 2014
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
My daughter and I LOVE Bad Kitty! I actually enjoy reading these stories with her and we always end up cracking up at the craziness that happens with Bad Kitty around. I have started giving these books as gifts to young kids in my family as birthday or Christmas presents. I haven't received a single complaint yet!
