Highly recommend.
Yes! Another children's book but why not? The cover is beautiful! The whole book is gorgeously illustrated throughout. In the beginning it gives an introduction to the main character and the different cats within the story. It also has some facts about cats too.Perfect for cat lovers. A 100 page read. This is book five in the Kitty series but reads fine as a Standalone. A brilliant children's book full of imagination and colour. It's about the festival of light but a thief is soon apparent and its kitty's job to find the thief and return the items to save the night.Within is a message that stealing is not okay. That making people feel happier is better than people feeling bad. That even if you did something wrong you can still fix it and I believe all children need to know that. I am keeping this to pass on to my daughter so she can read it when she's a little older. Highly recommend! Four stars from me.

Good for a six year old.
This was a good story to share with our six year old. It's a fun tale with Kitty and her cat based super powers out to catch a thief. The character intro at the start was helpful as this was our first Kitty story but that did not stop us understanding and enjoying this. The orange and black and white illustrations are great and gave us extra bits to infer from. Kitty is a fun character and this story is really all about knowing right from wrong as well as making amends for mistakes. As a shared read it was about right for our six year old so we could take it in turns. The chapters are quite long, about twenty pages so it was not our choice as a quick bedtime read. Better read with time to take it in properly. We will be seeking out more Kitty stories on the series! Great!

Nice story but black and sharp orange illustrations may make it tiring.
This is a beautiful return story book about a young girl who has cat superpowers. The story revolves around this superhero girl who is to stop a thief in a lantern festival. The thief goes around among people to spoil the fun and and steel shiny things.It's a nice written and beautiful story with moral objectives.Illustrations are beautiful however I found them a bit tiring because there are only two or three colours black, sharp orange, and white in the illustrations. I would imagine kids with sensory issues my find the book confusing or tiring.Although the story is nice and well written but due to the colouring of the book I would not buy it myself.

An enjoyable early chapter book
This is an enjoyable book full of black and orange illustrations and at around 100 pages long it is well aimed at emerging independent readers in the 5-7 age group. My 7 year old flew through the book and said she enjoyed the story but I would particularly recommend it to younger readers just starting on chapters books. My only complaint is that the pictures don't really follow the story, with the thief drawn in far before they are actually seen by the main character and giving the game away a bit.

great for 5 to 10 year olds
This is a great book for younger children and is so much fun. The basic premise of the book is about Kitty and her cat friends, all of whom are excellent and funny characters, to catch a thief at a lantern festival. My 8 year old daughter loved every minute of this and was so excited to receive it having read other kitty books beforehand. I have to say these are some of the most beautifully illustrated children's books I have ever seen and really add majesty to the story. A great way to up the level of bedtime stories with each chapter taking about 15 minutes to read out loud. The whole story can be completed in a week this way. Highly recommended.

Beautifully presented, strong female lead character
Beautifully illustrated story with colour pictures throughout, not sure why but my children are much more interested in a story when the book is on the thicker shinier paper which feels of a higher quality rather than the off white grey print most novels seem to be on. The story touches on some moral subjects of stealing and being kind which I think is fabulous. I’d say this story suits ages 7-10 being a easy read for the top end of the age bracket. We really do love a empowering female main character and have noticed this is a series which I think we will be adding more of to our collection
