Reseña del libro "Cats are Not Stupider on Jupiter: Vacuum Man vs. Cats (en Inglés)"
Mighty the cat wants to enter the VIP kitty competition and lets nothing get in the way; he doesn't let barf, a cute kitten, and even his feline brother, Brennon, stop him. Mighty and Brennon brainstorm some not so award winning ideas for the contest, but finally decide to perform a feat which scares even brave cats. During the performance, an accident occurs and makes Mighty think fast on his paws. The felines' valiant actions are recognized as heroic, and the feline brothers are presented with an odd award which Mighty secretly thinks is worse than getting coal for Christmas. Mighty and Brennon practice what they think of as 'exemplary behavior' but still end up in cat behavior school. While at school, Mighty begins to hear strange buzzing sounds coming from the outdoors. These sounds are ominous to Mighty and he later learns that they come from a machine called Vacuum Man which was first seen at the VIP kitty competition. The machine destroys almost anything on its path, and no one knows how to stop it. No one can figure out who Vacuum Man is. Mighty meet a certain Mr. Know-It-All cat at the behavior school who reveals the shocking news that Vacuum Man is headed towards Jupiter. This new insight leads Mighty to believe that Vacuum Man will destabilize the largest vacuum cleaner in the solar system: Jupiter.With some luck, Mighty and Brennon get the chance to fly to outer space with the dynamic Space Out Society (SOS). Mighty learns about teamwork, red swirls, and trust as he faces his greatest fears on the barren landscape with courage. Mighty and Brennon don't see aliens on Jupiter, but they feel the red sparks of victory. In order to save Earth and the solar system from destruction, the feline duo must face one of the greatest fears that cats and dogs face: the fear of vacuum cleaners and loud buzzing noises. Will Mighty and Brennon harness their might to save the solar system or will they trip over their tails? Cats are Not Stupider of Jupiter is filled with laugh out loud jokes for kids and reads like an illustrated diary. In this funny children's literature piece, Mighty the cat explains the world through his eyes and explains feline behavior through the lists he creates in his mind. Quirky, witty, and eccentric, Mighty leaves his paw prints on the world. This unconventional, lighthearted comedy is great for chapter - book readers and for beginners. The futuristic children's chapter book is also great for ages 8-12. What Readers are Saying"I was interested in the journey the entire time. I loved the lists that Mighty made in his head and the humorous parts. Seeing the descriptions of the pictures helped me visualize things in my head. Overall, I thought this was a very cute and humorous story that I enjoyed from beginning to end." - Cynthia"I found quite a few lines which were really hilarious, but I guess my favorite of all is, "I learned that it's best not to get into arguments, debates, or quarrels on a spaceship because once you start arguing there's no way out. Literally."Mighty is outspoken, dreamy, and reckless while Brennan is quiet, logical, and calculates his actions. As they were trying to build a rocket, I identified with Mighty's frustration and when they went to Jupiter, I felt both Mighty's bravery and excitement and Brennan's eagerness to stay logical despite these strong emotions. Overall, I think this is a really hilarious and humorous (in a really good way) story. It's also very creative and because of that, it is worth the read for both cat and non-cat lovers." - CarlaAlexis Cleoford's Real Hamsters Don't Bite is nominated for Readers Choice Award by TCK Publishing
