Reveals the developing maturity of a 14-year-old New York City boy, who with his cat, explores the city. I'm glad my book group chose this one. I hadn't read it since childhood. An interesting tale. Any one familiar with New York will better understand the journeys Dave takes. Not much of a plot line. More a glimpse into a life. I was startled at the ending and had to reread a few pages to make sense of it. Now I want to read some of Beverly Cleary's teen books and see how they compare. I was interested to see inside a boy's head having always been inside a girls! It's Like This Cat follows the story of Dave Mitchell as he forges through those awkward teen years we all have. He argues with his father and has a hard time talking to girls and finding friends. He stumbles upon a stray cat, which he takes home and calls Cat. Cat helps Dave meet two new friends, Tom and Mary. Tom is on his own and has no connection with his family. This encourages Dave to start looking at his own family differently. This was a great coming of age story. It's lighthearted but with significant truths we can all connect with. Who hasn't had difficult relationships with parents or peers? Sometimes it takes seeing things from someone's perspective other than our own to break down barriers and become a true family. It was slightly dated, but good, nonetheless. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
