Purrfectly Purrfect: Life at the Acatemy

By Patricia Lauber

Book Overview

As any cat owner knows, cats are born purrfect. But cats are purrfectionists -- they wish to make sure they are purrfectly purrfect. And that is why they go to the Acatemy, where they learn geography (CATskill Mountains, ConnectiCAT), mewsic (Kitten on the Keys), vocabulary (CATastrophe, CATapult), and, most important, EtiCAT, because knowing how to behave purrfectly is important. All of the students perform purrfectly, except Dudley. He's only a kitten, much too young for the Acatemy. Will he ruin the Acatemy's record for having all purrfect graduates?

Purrfect Read!

At school, I just read this book and I loved it. It has a great plot, and what I liked most about it is the play on words. It changes words like "academy" into "acatemy".It also showed copies of essays cats had written too! Last of all, I thought it was great how each cat had its own personality! It was easy to read, and great for kids (and parents too!)of all ages. I definitely recommend this book.
