A cat faces a new school routine

Kitty’s carefully ordered days are disrupted when his boy announces that he is going to kindergarten. There, familiar comforts and habits—nature shows, claw-sharpening, and hunting for snacks—aren’t part of the school day. The setup gives the story a child-friendly way to explore the uncertainty of a new experience, while the boy and teacher help Kitty discover that trying something different need not mean giving up everything he likes. With its focus on a cat’s transition to kindergarten, the book connects a playful premise to the changes that can come with starting school.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children preparing for kindergarten or adjusting to a new school routine

Book overview

In this back-to-school primer perfect for the most stubborn readers, Kitty knows three things. He is the center of the universe. He likes it that way. Nothing should ever change. But to Kitty's everlasting surprise and annoyance, things continue to change around him!

Kitty has everything he could ever want--breakfast at 7:00, supper at 4:00, and his favorite raggedy mouse toy. When Kitty goes to sleep, he dreams of a so-cozy life exactly the same as his own because same is what Kitty likes. But Kitty's world is rocked when his good, nice boy announces that Kitty will be going to kindergarten.

At kindergarten, Kitty is not able to do the things he usually does. He can't watch his nature shows, sharpen his claws, or hunt for snacks. But with the help of his good, nice boy and the teacher, Kitty learns that he can enjoy trying new things...and still get home in time for supper.
