Cats don't like Christmas? They hate it. For some reasons, I agree with this cat, but that's because he got no presents!! Reading this book, I reflected on how noisy Christmas is, and wholeheartedly agree with cat, what about Silent Night? We lit the candle, sing for 5 minutes, and turn back on the light. It's a fun book, nevertheless.

This is a fun and cute Christmas story that young children will enjoy in the lead up to Christmas.

The illustrations are fun and bright and the grumpy cat is funny. If you have a cat so much of the story will be relatable I am sure! Great story with a good twist at the end!

Cats don't like Christmas by Andy Wortlock is beautiful illustrated story for young children. It would be perfect to read to children during the run up to Christmas especially children who like cats. The illustrations are very eye-catching for younger children to enjoy the story. I will most certainly pick a copy of this book to read to my 5 and 7 year old nephews at bed time. Thank you Netgalley for the opportunity to read this storybook in exchange for a review

I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. This book is a fun title about a cat who does not enjoy the holidays and why he doesn't enjoy them.

This is a good book for children, the cat complains through the book about Christmas.
BooksGoSocial and Net galley let me read this book (thank you). It has been published and you can pick up a copy now.

The cat is crabby. He gets his paws caught in scotch tape and they moved his pillows. He climbs to the top of the Christmas tree and tells the family that it's their fault for bringing it indoors.

But at the end of the book there is a surprise. Can you guess what it is?

I choose to read and review this book because I love cats. Before we moved to Australia from the United States we had three cats, which we unfortunately left behind because it was not humane in our eyes to make them take the long journey.

The cover and the drawings in the book all display an image of a grumpy cat, which you can guess does not like Christmas. The drawings display the Christmas spirit in such a comedic way. The colors are bright and festive.

The gumpy cat shares all the reasons why he does not like Christmas. He talks about such things as the changes that occur when we decorate our houses such as moving items around so we can fit the tree. He talks about things that he will do while no one is looking, which is exactly what some of our cats would do.

My favorite part is Operation Christmas because the images of what he wants to do just makes you laugh.

At the end of the book, the author has instructed the reader to go pack through the pages and look for a specific animal and item that can be found on every page of the book.

Rating: 5 out of 5 because I loved this book. The drawings are spot on and the cats reactions make sense to me. I would definitely recommend this book.

We are a family of cat lovers and Christmas lovers so I knew this book was going to go down well here! And it really did. I read this with my sons who are 7 & 10 and they loved it, laughing along through the story and enjoyed finding the hidden picture on each page. It was a very cute story and we would definitely recommend it as a holiday favourite.

Cats don’t like Christmas? Well they sure love my Christmas tree. This book is a great little book for children around Christmas time.

Cute illustrations and funny story about how a cat feels about Christmas activities and decorations. A fun story for kids to enjoy around the Christmas season.

All thoughts and opinions are my own, and I have not been by anyone.

I remember our friend has stopped decorating her Xmas tree because her annoying cat kept vandalizing her xmas tree. After reading "Cats don't like Christmas", I empathize for her cat . Told in the cat's perspective, the humorous book explains about how the holiday season stresses it (the cat) out. With quirky illustrations and the cat's sarcastic tone, the readers are sure to enjoy this amusing book. A wonderful xmas gift for young readers.

I love when I find Christmas books that break about from the norm. My kids thought this book was hilarious. They giggled the entire time at all that was happening. It will be one that we will definitely add to our Christmas collection.

Having 2 cats I really enjoyed this book. As I was reading it I thought gee, maybe this is what they do think at Christmas time. The author definitely knows cats. The illustrations are vivid and colorful. I especially liked the hidden pictures on each page. A great added feature to the book. This would make a great addition to a school library or home library.
