Sweet story, A little longer than I expected, but not too long for a three year-old attention span. Easy to understand. Captivating illustrations all done and gray and white. Well Worth the time and the money.

As a former early childhood teacher and later professor, I used this book with many small children. It is a sweet story and the art is extraordinar. Parents, look for Caldecott (early childhood) and Newbery (older children) winners for highly recommended children's literature.

I bought this for my nephew for Christmas since he loves cats and it was a hit. Great book for little ones!

I first read this book to my oldest, now almost 12, and it was the first book she ever read herself. We borrowed it from the library. She loved it, so I bought it for my youngest when she was 2. Now 6 she loves this book and it's a favorite bedtime story. She is past the reading level of the book, but she loves the antics of the kitten because it reminds her of her cat. I'm pretty sure we'll always have a soft spot for this one.Over 4 years the book had held up well considering how much it's read to my youngest and yes, her cat (who sits through every reading like it's never heard the story.)

This is my daughter's favorite book. At 8 months old my daughter's three most favorite things were kitty, milky and the moon-- so this book was an instant hit. I worried that black and white would be boring for her, but the illustrations are so beautiful and full of contrast our entire family loves to read it and look at it, day after day. The book is an adventure type, so reading it is never dull. She is 23 months now and remembers the words in the book and acts out each scene. Super cute!As an additional bonus, this book helped me wean her at 21 months. Prior to weaning, this has been a book that was read prior to her passionate and highly anticipated -- evening mama milky sessions. Kitty is her hero, so realization that he/she is drinking from the bowl, has drastically changed her motivation. She went from wanting, what was familiar to wanting what was cool. After attempting to drink from the soup bowl she moved on to the very tall bowl --cup. Highly recommended and surprised this book doesn't have 400 or more five star reviews.

This was our second Henkes book. It's similar to the first, "Waiting," in pretty much every way. It's got a clever concept, nice drawings, functional writing, but is basically just kinda soft and insipid over all. No edge or depth to speak of. Just a sweet, wholesome children's book with no balls. My kid likes it okay, and I'm not saying it isn't good. I'm just saying that it lacks the edge you find in Sendak, Seuss, and Klassen, among others.

Excellent Book BUT 2nd Rate from Amazon. I purchased this book “New” from Amazon for the same amount as advertised at another local store. I expected to receive a first rate book but did not. I purchased it for convenience but I ended up returning it & purchasing it elsewhere.The story itself is excellent which is why is won a Caldecott Literary award. It is perfect as a first birthday present as a bedtime story, especially if your household has a cat.

Our kid loves cats and milk. So this book is a staple in our bedtime/storytime routine. The words match what the pictures show, so it also helps in second language acquistion, at least that's how it works for us.

My two year old adores it. It's the first story that she has taken interest in. And every time she looks at the moon she remembers the kitten.
