My favourite part was when Dread Cat took a mouse and gave them a letter. I would recommend this book to other children. The best word was 'horror' and 'stupendously'.

It was absolutely hilarious. A cat tried tricking the mouse but the mouse caught on. I liked the cat as he had a smart plan. I would reccomend it to everyone.

The cat in this book was very sneaky but the mice managed to catch him out in the end. My favourite characters were the mice.
