Cat the Cat is a book series for very early readers written and illustrated by award-winning children's author and illustrator, Mo Willems. The series began in February 2010 with the publication of two books, with additional books slated to follow soon thereafter.

Reception[edit]

Prior to the first book's release, the Cat the Cat series garnered advance reviews including a starred review in Publishers Weekly, which said, "Willems provides just enough humor and surprise to entertain youngest audiences...Cat could become another favorite; her personality sparkles in expansive gestures and gleeful interactions."[1] The series also has been mentioned in School Library Journal.[2]
