About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is grappling with the guilt of a mistake or when holiday stress is making everyone a bit cranky. It is an ideal choice for the child who feels like they are always the one getting into trouble and needs a reminder that family love is stronger than any ruined plan. The story follows a mischievous cat named Puss who accidentally eats the entire Christmas turkey, sending the family into a tailspin of frustration and panic. Beyond the feline antics, the book explores how families handle disappointment. It provides a gentle way to talk about responsibility and the importance of fixing problems together rather than pointing fingers. At 96 pages with plenty of humor, it is a perfect bridge for early readers who are ready for chapter books but still want a lighthearted, fast-paced story. Parents will appreciate the secular, relatable depiction of a modern family holiday, mess and all.
