Bad Kitty Joins the Team

A parent might reach for this book when their child is struggling to cooperate on a team or share the spotlight with others. Bad Kitty, the notoriously grumpy and selfish feline, is horrified when her owner forces her to join the Neighborhood Cat Club. Worse, the club is training for the Cat-lympics! Kitty is terrible at every sport and her bad attitude causes nothing but trouble. This hilarious graphic novel uses over-the-top humor to explore the frustration of not being the best, the importance of sportsmanship over winning, and the joy of finding where you belong. For kids 7 to 10, it is a funny, low-pressure way to talk about teamwork and managing big feelings of anger and jealousy.
