Cats Don't Like Christmas! is a children's picture book on animals and holiday themes. It is suitable for young readers aged three to seven years and was penned by author Andy Wortlock and illustrated by artist Nahum Ziersch. In this charming picture book that follows on from the instructional and pet-friendly volume Cat’s Don’t Like That!, Wortlock returns to explain all of the new and unusual features that Christmas can bring to a home, and how your cat might respond to them. From climbing the Christmas tree to struggling with family and lights, this joyous little book charts the highs and lows from a cat's-eye perspective.

Author Andy Wortlock strikes the perfect balance between the educational and moral messages of this adorable picture book and the funny, entertaining side of cats and how they react to strange new stimuli. The storyline is brief but totally effective in the right time span for the age range, and it certainly covers all the major areas of the holiday season with easily-accessed language in bold, clear print. The illustrations by artist Nahum Ziersch bring the cat to life in so many brilliant ways. I especially enjoyed seeing the beaming cat’s face reflected in the bauble and searching for the tiny mouse on every double-page spread! Overall, I would highly recommend Cats Don't Like Christmas! for young readers learning to care for their pets for the first time and also for any child to learn about empathy whilst also having a great reading experience.

It's a well-known fact that cats don't like change. And nothing brings as much change in a household as the arrival of the Christmas holidays. Cats Don't Like Christmas! is a children's picture book by Andy Wortlock that follows a cute house cat preparing himself ahead for Christmas and all that it brings. With eye-popping illustrations by Nahum Ziersch, the book follows a cat's point of view as to why the time during the Christmas holidays is some of the most tumultuous in his life. First of all, the Christmas lights flash all night. How is one supposed to sleep? And those visiting pesky "hoomans," always messing with the fur. And don't even mention the noise; unbearable. But even a cat cannot resist the delights of Christmas for long for they get to play with new toys.

Cats Don't Like Christmas! is a funny and lighthearted picture book that is bound to make your child laugh. Author Andy Wortlock shares the joys of Christmas with a fresh take -- by viewing it through the eyes of a cat. As someone who grew up with furry feline friends, I have to say he perfectly portrays the essence of a cat. This is how they probably see Christmas. The dialogue is witty and further complemented by the artwork. The illustrations by Nahum Ziersch add another layer of engagement to the story, making it all the more fun to read. I had a blast reading the book and highly recommend it to parents to introduce it to their children.
