I must admit I am not a big Splat the Cat fan. I feel the stories are mass produced and a bit boring. The art is the only saving grace in my opinion. BUT who cares about my opinion. My children obviously don't. It's December and I am still reading this Halloween themed book with my kids.As an adult I don't like pop up window books that have no theme or purpose to the pop ups. This book is one that falls under this category. Some of the windows are almost the size of the page and it seems like they should have just put the reveal on a new page instead of hiding it under clunky over sized windows. But again... WHO CARES! My kids love it.There are other annoyances. Like Seymour's wailing comes through a gramophone he is sitting on. HOW is that even possible I want to scream... But I don't because my kids are screaming out loud with laughter. Despite so many annoyances, my kids (ages 3 and 5) both love this book. So I have to give it four stars. I see me reading this long into the Winter.
This review was told to me by my 7 year old daughter. "I liked the book because it's scary and my favorite animal is a cat. And what I really like about Splat the Cat is his little mice friend and they actually get along. And even though they are supposed to be chasing each other because cats eat mice and rats".
This is another cute book about the adventures of Splat the Cat and his mouse friend Seymour. This book is about Splat and his cat friend trick-or-treating at a haunted house--which of course, turns out to not be haunted. It's a pop-up book and has very nice pictures. I bought it for my five year old, but my seven and eight year old also enjoyed me reading it to them.
I am a collector of Splat books and this one is one of the best yet! I get my kids in my class, addicted to them, so at the end of the year they too are collecting them too. Can't have too many.
Yet another great Splat the Cat book. My daughter and I both enjoy the illustrations and the seasonal stories are a good addition to her Splat collection. I appreciate the range of books in the series from simple stories like this one to early readers and the full scale hardcovers.
My daughter enjoys the Splat the Cat books, so I thought it would be fun to order a Halloween Book. It's a cute (and short) story about Splat, Seymour and Spike going into a haunted house. Each page has large lift the flaps. Not a very long story, but still fun and the illustrations are fun as always. For the price, it's a good holiday book to buy.
This is a fun Halloween read for kids aged around 3-7. Splat the Cat and Spike are almost done trick-or-treating when their pal Seymour scampers off towards an old, spooky house. They can’t leave him behind, and that’s where lift-the-flap fun begins. The cats search everywhere for Seymour, only to hear spooky sounds at every turn. This silly story never gets old—our kids know it by heart, but they still get a kick lifting the flaps to see what happens next.Page inserts in the book lift out in many directions. Paper flap books can withstand only so much flipping before they begin to show wear and tear. To me, that’s the sign of a well-read book, and what scotch tape is for. Even though this is a seasonal book, it gets read year round.
My son adores following the adventures of Splat the Cat. We preorder each title as it is released. Rob Scotton never disappoints.
