Title: The Little Grumpy Cat that Wouldn't
Series: Grumpy Cat
Author: Little Golden Book
Rating: 4 of 5 Stars
Genre: Children
Pages: 24
Format: Board Book

Synopsis:

Grumpy Cat meets lots of other friendly show more little animals and has a horrible time until they leave her alone.

My Thoughts:

Another cute little Grumpy Book by Little Golden Books. Unfortunately, Little took the easy route and simply used the better known Grumpy Cat meme answers whenever one of the friendly little animals would ask Grumpy Cat a question. Whether that answer made the most sense or not. Dinged ½ a star just for that.

My second, and definitely biggest issue, is how this book tries to brainwash the children with it's politically correct gender politics. Grumpy Cat is referred to as a female. Now, just because the real life grumpy cat is a female and it is a female in A Very Grumpy Christmas doesn't actually mean that Grumpy Cat IS a female. Grumpy Cat is kind of like zen, more of a state of mind than a state of actually being. You wouldn't go up to a zen monk who was meditating, push him over and feel him up, would you? At least, I hope you wouldn't. If you would, please don't follow my blog any more! Dinged ½ a star for that.

Other than that, this was another great instance of Grumpy Cat standing up for all of us who hate other people and company and pretty much life itself. We have our Champion now!

This book is exactly what it needs to be! Grumpy Cat is her usually grumpy self and does not change just because she's in a Little Golden Book.

Grumpy Cat meets other animals and still goes home grumpy.
