The Catawampus Cat is all askew and teaches the townspeople how to change their perspectives and experience the world in a new and exciting way, which (in my opinion) inadvertently shows children how unique people are of different backgrounds, orientations, genders, etc.

This one just misses its target audience - the sentences read like they were aimed at adults but the whole story is definitely aimed at kids. The illustrations are fun, but the overall message that looking at the world from a different perspective is just negated at the end when This one just didn't work for me.

the entire town conforms to a new way of thinking together. It's still groupthink.wordnerd153's review against another edition

Delightful from beginning to end. A fun read aloud that could spark some interesting discussion from primary students.

In this lovable story from Jason Carter Eaton and Gus Gordon, a peculiarly crooked cat saunters into a new town. As the townspeople spot the newcomer and are pulled from their routines, a refreshing change in perspective inspires connection and new insights. Gordon’s charming illustrations paired with the humorous and thoughtful story make for a delightful package.
The Catawampus Cat is my Patronus.

Cute illustrations. An off-kilter cat causes many people to look at their days/problems differently. As soon as everyone is off-kilter, the cat straightens up.
