Editorial Reviews

Publishers Weekly
The high-strung but well-meaning Splat, from Splat the Cat and Love, Splat, returns with a special request for Santa Claus. But when his younger sister expresses doubt that he's been good enough, he overcompensates: he washes the dishes (they weren't even dirty), adds extra decorations to the tree and, to be safe, waits up for Santa to assure him of his good behavior. Splat's frazzled black fur and bulging eyeballs—contrasting with a cool palette of greens and grays—seem to lift off the page, affirming his larger-than-life appeal. Ages 3–7. (Oct.)
Children's Literature
Splat, the furry, black cat, returns in a Christmas story. He is busy writing a letter to Santa Claus on Christmas Eve. Splat's message lets Santa know that Splat would like a ‘really big present' and that he has been very good. Splat's little sister casts some doubts as to whether Splat has been a really good cat and should receive a really big gift. The doubts begin to grow in Splat's mind so he decides to catch up on being good by helping his mother out around the house which leads to some hilarious results. By bedtime, he's still concerned about how good he has been during the year so with a flashlight in his paws, he decides to wait for Santa which is not an easy task. The illustrations of Splat are funny and the character's feelings are very expressive. The fluffy fur on Splat almost looks real. This is a fun story to enjoy with children who are anticipating the arrival Christmas. Reviewer: Carrie Hane Hung

    Excellent Children's Book

    Although I am 57 years of age, as a teacher I found this book to be fun and interesting. My students also had fun hearing the story and the illustrations were excellent.
    If you have children Pre-K through 6th grade - this is an excellent choice for a fun read.

    Darling Splat

    I saw this book, and the illustrations immediately caught my eye. Splat is so darling, and this is such a cute story. Of course, most importantly, my daughter (20 months old) loves this book. We read it a lot, and she adores little Splat, too.

    Skip this Splat Derivative

    My (3 year old) son and I love the original Splat the Cat, so I picked this one up at a store at Xmastime. We were disappointed; it's a bore. Seems the Scotton wanted to cash in on Xmas.
