I liked that the black kitten was leading me through the story and to the box. I pretended that the kitten was calling my name as she was leading me through the house.

I thought it was good because I could read the cat's adventure. My favourite part was when the cat found the mouse and the mouse was very surprised. Everyone should read this book

I like it because it has a cat and we have two new kittens. The story is about a dark dark house and the book is pretty freaky and spooky. You wonder what is going to happen. In the end, you find a little mouse sleeping in a box in the cupboard and he looks terrified.
