Review By LAWonder10:
Alycat and the Cattywampus Wednesday is a fun portrayal of a weird experience in Alycat’s life. It will delight young children and will open up a fun conversation with those in the group listening or after a child has read the book.
This is a creative, tale which is sure to captivate young children’s short thought-span. The writing is clear, precise and well-done.
The Illustrations by Chiar a Civati are beatifully created. They are lustrous, full of bright colors. and darling characters.
The hard copy is of quality color, print and wormanship.

Guest Post:

When writing a children’s book series, an author should create characters so that every reader can see themselves as one of the characters in the stories. In The Alycat Series, I strived to obtain that goal by creating a diverse set of characters with many different traits. Here are the character traits of the Alycat friends:
Alycat – loves her friends, creative, wears her heart on her sleeve
Spotty – devoted friend, picker-upper when someone is down, witty
Bugsy – reserved, determined to succeed, never wants to miss out on fun
Mom – loving, warm, reserved
Dad – jack of all trades, simple, compassionate
Luna – outgoing, great at gymnastics, thoughtful
Phoebe – meek, crafty, always smiling,
Roux – excellent storyteller, loves to draw, great sportsmanship
Harvey – Athletic, good friend,
Kit – Reserved, shy, nurturing
Eleonor – considerate, supportive friend, respectful
Sam – leader, strong will, confident
Mrs. Purry – sentimental, compassionate, likes structure
Dr. Katz – brilliant, caring, determined
