Lovely storyNovember 30, 2008 A fellow parent once gave me some advice; "only read stories to your children that YOU enjoy....." That was great advice to give because children tend to like repetition and I would often be "stuck" on the same book for nights on end.
I love the Mog stories and I must admit, have fallen in love with Mog. This was the first book I purchased in the series and even now the boys are older (10 and 7) they still enjoy my reading it to them.
A classic book which I will keep forever!

My daughter loves Mog, she has fast become a firm favourite at bedtime! I agree the pictures are dated, but I think that is part of Mog's charm! My little girl loves saying "Bother Bother BOTHER that cat". I will be buying some more for her to read, as I have read this one so much and want to know what other antics Mog gets up to!!!
Pretty good, classic early storybookMay 26, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Excellent storybook for very young children - maybe 3 and 4 year olds, if not younger. Simple storyline backed up by colourful but twee illustrations, based on the dad-goes-out-to-work-while-mum-stays-at-home assumption. Dated, yes, but 3 and 4 year olds are hardly going to worry over much about that.
The easily grasped incident and situation are pitched just right for this age group.

I adore this book! Despite now being at university, I still love to read the Mog books to bring back happy memories and they never fail to move me! My children (when I have them) will certainly be introduced to the joys of Mog.
