In "Bad Kitty Drawn to Trouble," the famously mischievous feline finds herself in a meta-narrative showdown with her own creator, author Nick Bruel. This full-color graphic novel blends laugh-out-loud humor, slapstick comedy, and a surprising educational element, as Nick attempts to explain the book-making process despite Kitty's constant interruptions. Parents will appreciate the clever way it introduces concepts of authorship and storytelling, while children aged 4-11 will delight in Kitty's defiant personality, her encounters with zombies and talking turnips, and the dynamic, engaging illustrations. It's a fantastic choice for reluctant readers and a fun read-aloud that sparks conversations about creativity and who's really in charge of a story.
Zombies! Talking turnips! Puppy! Kitty takes 'em all on, in full color! But her mettle is really tested when she encounters none other than her creator. In the latest full-color reissue of the New York Times–bestselling series, Kitty encounters what may be her most formidable foe yet: her creator! Kitty learns that feline manipulation works both ways—especially when you're at the wrong end of your author's pencil. Along the way, Nick shows kids how a book is created, despite the frequent interruptions from you-know-who.
