I love all the poem books written/made by Francesco Marciuliano, so I was very delighted when I found out there would be a new one.

At first glance I thought it would be a repeat of the first book or maybe a bundle with the best poems, but then I found out it was a new book. With new poems. With new photographs that will make you laugh and squee.

I am normally not a poetry person. I tend to avoid them, I am not sure why, but poetry is just not my thing. But for some reason I just love these poems. They are funny, they are hilarious, and they perfectly show us how cats are. I don't have cats of my own, but I have seen enough cats in my life, read about them, that I know these poems are just spot on.

The poems vary from every day things (like a cat throwing down a bottle of spaghetti sauce, and immediately getting distracted by the meatballs) to a cat realising that he would be in jail for the stuff he does if he was a human. :P

All the poems made me laugh out loud and I had a lot of fun reading them. The photographs are cute as always (who can resist cute cats). I would highly recommend this book to everyone!

While I didn't like this one quite as much as I Could Pee on This, I still enjoyed it a lot. I like the whole concept of poetry "written by cats". It's cute and funny. Plus, I love cats.

My fav poem:

"Why are you screaming?"

Why are you screaming?
What did I do wrong?
Why are you crying?
How can I make it right?
Would you like it in a different color?
Would you like it in a different size?
Would you like it in a different room?
I just wanted to show my love
I just wanted to express my thanks
I just wanted to put a dead mouse on your sheets
But now you are screaming
And I don't know how to make you stop

I loved this poem!!!

Also loved this quote:

"They say there are 24 hours in a day, but I'm only up for 3 of them and two I consider overtime!"

Omg this was JUST as good as its predecessor! I'm still cracking up because all of these poems are absolutely 100 percent true of most (all) cats and I'm dying. If this isn't my cat I don't know what is!

Silly book, good for a laugh. Some poems are funnier than others. I read this out loud to my cat-lover husband, and it made him laugh, so maybe I'm just too much of a dog person to fully get it. (I have never owned a cat).

Best. Books. Ever. If you hate poems, you'll love these books. If you love poems, you'll love these books. Get them for everyone you know who has a cat, wants a cat, or is a cat.
