This would be a good way to encourage children to write their own stories. First an adult could read the book aloud to motivate young writers to come up with their stories about what happens at night while they’re asleep. Thinking creatively about what a family pet does at night provides a simple outline for a child’s imagination to take off.

Lucas, The Spy Cat
Samantha Shannon

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

This is a brilliant little quick read that also encourages interactivity too.

Anyone who owns a cat must, like me, have wondered what on earth they get up to when they slip through that cat flap and into the night.
In this book, the owners have come up with their own theories about all the exciting things Lucas does while he's out and can't wait to find out, when they pop a little camera on his collar.
What will they discover?.....

I loved this book - I always come up with super exciting theories about what our cat is doing out there all night - when most probably, he's wandering the gardens and snoozing !?

This story is entertaining and funny and I think children will enjoy following Lucas on his journey time and time again.

This rhymes which makes it the perfect story to be read aloud as it flows beautifully as you read.

I also love the really bright and colourful images that follow on each page of the story.
These are quite busy so great for smaller children to be drawn to while you read to them, and great to pause and discuss throughout the story.

At the end of the book there are also some brilliant puzzle pages for the older children to do - this would be brilliant if you have more than one child and are reading to them together.
Although to be honest - I loved doing them myself too!

A great book for any cat lovers and a lovely addition to any children's bookshelf or library. I loved this!




💕Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for my ARC copy - this is my honest review 💕

I love the illustration and the concept but I am not too sure about the writing. There are bits that do not seem to connect well.

I’ve never found myself so invested in finding out what a cat gets up to at night! This is an interesting story, and Lucas
Is a character that I want to read more about! I loved the activities included with the book.
