Description: It’s Christmas time! It’s here again!

But first I need to say…

I think you’re making too much fuss

about this holiday!

Our adorable little cat is back this Christmas and he thinks there might be a little too much fuss this holiday season. Cats aren't great with change and there's plenty this time of year, in such a short period of time! For little and big readers, this is the funny, festive, companion to the award winning, Cats Don’t Like That! by Andy Wortlock and Nahum Ziersch.

My Thoughts: 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.

Many thanks to BooksGoSocial and Netgalley for this review copy. This is my honest opinion.
