"Cat's facial expressions perfectly mimic those of a toddler and
are captured within a pleasing soft palette of ink and color pencil
drawings. Wry humor and a twist ending make this book a charmer."
—The Washington Post
★ “Wickedly fun as ever—Underwood and Rueda clearly know how
well sweet and salty go together.” —Publishers Weekly, starred
review
“Underwood's endearing, voiceless cat is back, this time getting a
lesson in Valentine's Day tact. . . . Rueda masterfully uses white
space and Cat's facial expressions and body language . . . for
beautifully pitched comic timing. Cat hasn't lost his ability to
charm readers, if for no other reason than children are so able to
see themselves in him.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Fresh and satisfying . . . Empowers kids by positioning them as
the narrative voice of reason. . . . Cat is a hoot at the height of
his naughtiness, but also he’s poignantly repentant . . . Fans of
Cat’s previous books (and even Valentine’s Day–phobes) are likely
to fall in love with this series installment.” —BCCB
“Creatively presented . . . Humorous . . . The story’s singular
narrative style and simple but expressive illustrations will make
it a favorite . . . Pair it with Laura Malone Elliott’s A
String of Hearts.” —School Library Journal
