Reviewed by Kylie Buckley
Oliver Kitten’s Diary is a fun and humorous recount of a kitten’s first
year of life. Oliver (don’t even think of calling him Ollie) was adopted by a
human family when he was six weeks old. The precocious and cheeky cat is confident
that everyone will want to know about his important life so he decides to keep
a journal. Oliver captures his most memorable moments from each day, from stealth
operations to simply snoozing. Despite his mother’s warning to stay out of
trouble, Oliver seems to be in it on many occasions.
Animal lovers of all ages will adore reading about the antics of this delightfully
mischievous cat, and be amused by the subtleties of feline and human behaviours.
This novel sized book features short diary entries, thick yellow page borders,
patterned endpapers, and cat silhouettes adorning most pages. Oliver
Kitten’s Diary is recommended for readers aged 9 years and older.
