Disclaimer--This is the 3rd book in a series and I haven't read books 1 & 2. BUT I was impressed enough with this entry that I bought them for my Granddaughter in another state. She will see them when she returns from her vacation in a couple days but her Mom assures me she'll be delighted.
Now I'm not a person into pets but I found the main character, Kimberly the cat, just irresistible. Her CATtitude is right on for a cat. Faced with a problem she denies having, her creative avoidance techniques keep the reader laughing. Baddorf surely has a way with words. This book defines "light summer reading" for the young middle schooler.
