Bringing a new feline friend home isn’t just a chance to grow your family, it’s an opportunity to teach your child empathy, compassion, and responsibility.

Can Naomi and Melvin remain besties? Will Flippy ever stop worrying? And WHO are the special guest stars dashing forth to investigate the comic club? Find out next time in Cat Kid Comic Club: On Purpose!!! If you make something that isn't what you originally envisioned, so what? Keep going. Make something better. Learn from your mistakes, and don't dwell on your shortcomings. Use them to your advantage. Shape your abilities. Become familiar with the curve of your style. And never stop. With this mindset, there's nowhere to go but up because failing is just another part of the process. Don't allow failure to be an ending but a generator that empowers you to try harder. Flippy, Molly, Li'l Petey, and twenty-one baby frogs each have something to say. Naomi and Melvin don't see eye to eye and Poppy perceives the world differently than her siblings. Will the baby frogs figure out how to work together and appreciate one another's point of view -- both inside and outside the classroom?If your cat is happy to be touched, emphasise how important it is to treat your cat kindly and gently. You can also show your child where cats do and don’t like to be touched. Wendy and Raine's siblings are mad that the book ended in a cliffhanger, and that its sequel won't be showcased until the following week. The H.A.C.K.E.R. Brothers were intrigued by Naomi's comic, and they ask her to join the group. But Melvin takes over her decisions and declares that he will protect Naomi at all times. The two siblings start saying that they'll crush those who go against them, and they start laughing menacingly... Melvin writes a comic all about his sister, Naomi and her perspective, with the formatting being like a song. Allow your cat to approach first. Don’t force your cat to come closer or keep them in the room if they’re scared, they should always be free to return to a safe space.

In the ending of the book, it is revealed that Sarah and Zuzu will appear in the upcoming book: On Purpose.

Create a sanctuary in your home – Start slow by keeping your new cat in a separate room with the door closed, with everything they need in one place to allow them to adjust slowly at their own pace Perfect for existing fans of Dog Man and Captain Underpants as well as those new to Dav Pilkey’s accessible and zany stories, Cat Kid Comic Club is something new again – a friendship story with a passion for comics at its core. Hopefully it will inspire a whole new generation of comic makers. Encourage your child to let your cat sniff them (at their own pace) by holding out their hand. You might also wish to give your cat some clothing or a blanket belonging to your child ahead of this first meeting, so they can get used to the smell beforehand.

The names of the Baby Frog Squad are based from breakfast cereals. Frankie is named after Franken Berry, C.C. is named after Count Chocula, and Boo is named after Boo Berry. Brutus, the pink robot, is also named after another breakfast cereal, Fruit Brute. Bring home something familiar – If you can, take some of your new cat’s bedding home, as a familiar scent can help them feel more secure Lastly, you should teach your child how to understand a cat’s body language. This will help them understand when your cat is friendly and ready to play, and when they’re scared or want to be left alone. Swishing tails, ruffled fur and hissing are all obvious warnings to stay away. L’il Petey and his two able helpers introduce 21 rambunctious, funny and talented baby frogs to the art of comic making in the Cat Kid Comic Club classroom. As well as a hilarious and very silly story about the antics of the baby frogs, readers will learn about the practice, mistakes and persistence required to make a comic. In El's profile, it says their pronouns are they/them, which might mean that they are non-binary, or their gender is not confirmed.Being a perfectionist has the tendency to slow me down, or puts me off writing completely for months on end. It interrupts the creative flow. So, I applaud Pilkey for teaching kids early on not to worry so much about failing. I believe this message will give kids the confidence they need in their creativity, in a time when imagination is scarce and--in some cases--discouraged. The shenanigans are nonstop and the baby frogs' minicomics are funny and full of heart. Creating stories within a story, author and illustrator Dav Pilkey uses a variety of techniques -- including acrylic paints, colored pencils, Japanese calligraphy, photography, collage, gouache, watercolors, and much more -- to portray each frog's perspective. The kaleidoscope of art styles, paired with Pilkey's trademark storytelling and humor, fosters creativity, collaboration, independence, and empathy. Readers of all ages will relish this joyful graphic novel adventure. Flippy notices a 3D building and praises the team for improving their drawing skills. Curly shows the class how to make 3D buildings. Naomi bugs Melvin whilst drawing a 3D building and Melvin screams: YOU'RE DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! Chapter 4: Big Trouble for Little Melvin [ ] Frankie, C.C., and Boo used to work as Law Enforcers. But they changed their minds and became space heroes. They detect a bully on a planet, and try to stop the bully. But the bully ejects an evil robot out of his body. The baby frogs turn the robot into a good robot, and they prompt him to hug the bully. The bully runs away, and the victim is saved.

The baby frogs blame Naomi and Melvin for all their mistakes throughout the past week, but Flippy blames it all on himself. They all try to comfort him using comics. Cat Kid Comic Club is the fantastic new colour graphic novel series by Dav Pilkey, author of The Adventures of Captain Underpants and Dog Man.
