Off to a good start, Dolly! Looking at your first book, did you just get a kitten, or are planning to? They're awfully cute!
We adopted two kittens in October, so it's always good to brush up on these kinds of books. My youngest daughter actually picked out the book to read, so I'm thrilled that she is taking her job as adoptive parent seriously.
Two kittens - cute! A lot of people don't understand the responsibility involved with young pets, it's great that your daughter is realising that!
