It was a good book but I didn't think it followed much the rest of the Serendipity series. The wording is sweet and simple while it is an easy plot to follow with beautiful pictures.
The reason I don't think that it follows the Serendipity series much is since the cat is really never caught doing something bad in a sense. And the little lesson at the end tells you that much that he was never caught besides by himself since he would now trip over his tail, which you would think the wizard would have noticed.
Anyway this story could have been just one of those books as a plain children's book instead. The children will adore the cat and find it funny what his wishes become while any cat-lover would just agree that is the way of cats.

This is a pretty cute book from Serendipity with a relatively light-hearted conflict and an appropriate ending.
