Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly
Judith Kerr's Mog the Forgetful Cat is back in a 30th anniversary edition. Mog's absentminded ways get her into trouble. For instance, she forgets that she has a cat flap in the kitchen door, so she squashes the flowers in the window box trying to get the Thomas family's attention. But when her forgetfulness helps to catch a burglar, Mog becomes a hero. Cartoonish drawings capture Mog's eccentric ways and the warmth of the Thomases. ; Feb.

Review
For cat lovers the recognition factor here approaches 100%. Mog, an impeccably white-stockinged tabby, is not exactly forgetful, just endearingly troublesome in the way of all pets. With the gratuitous exception of her inadvertently catching a burglar, Mog is characterized through the kind of minute observations that will delight fans of feline eccentricity and (most likely) mystify those not so inclined. Mog "sometimes thought of something in the middle of washing her leg. Then she forgot to wash the rest of it"; another time, "Mog forgot that Debby was not a kitten" and licked the sleeping Debby's hair, inspiring a nightmare about a Rousseau-like tiger. Like the story, the cleanly precise illustrations emphasize carefully abstracted detail more than sustained emotional impact.

3.0 out of 5 stars Drat That Publisher, October 27, 2007
By Amy Kennedy-Mehegan (Portland, Oregon) - See all my reviews
This book was one of my favorites as a child, so I purchased a copy to give my four year old niece for Christmas. I couldn't believe they changed the best part of the story, and replaced it with "Bother That Cat"

I had my original copy for years, and read it often when I worked as a nanny or in daycare. The children always loved shouting "Drat That Cat!" at Mog's antics.

Disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Cutest little line of books I've ever read!, March 13, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Mog, the forgetful cat
Mog is a very cute little cat that always gets into trouble and somehow saves the day, accidentally, and gets a reward, this is the perfect book for a baby or toddler. I was read this book 13 years ago when I was a little kid. I love this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars MOG IS GREAT, March 12, 2005
WE REALLY ENJOY THIS BOOK. I AGREE W/ THE LAST REVIEWER, "DRAT THAT CAT" SOUNDS BETTER, SO WE SAY THAT INSTEAD OF "BOTHER THAT CAT". ANOTHER GREAT BOOK BY KERR IS 'THE TIGER WHO CAME TO TEA'.
