Huge Story & Inspiring For Young Authors
This story had so much involved over 35chapters where the story is divided well for bite sized chapters and a good reference tool to go back through especially for writing first person perspective. So much involved in this story that I could see it being inspiring for young readers and authors to inspire writing their early books and using this as a guide to tell their own stories. Illustrations added to the book as well and it was most appreciated to see. I am looking forward to seeing more books from this author and reviewing them on my second YouTube channel Hypersanity Books 4-Kids. Though this is a book that is a perfect family book.

"Ramsay the Cat by Wolf Norris narrates the exciting exploits of Ramsay, a fearless, orange-striped cat. Ramsay, an adorable troublemaker, is first discovered by his owner, Smarty, in Liberia. Smarty and his wife (Jenn) own a restaurant there. They adopt Ramsay and make him part of their family. Ramsay is constantly searching for new adventures to go on. He discovers his passion for milk, chicken, attention, and affection while in the loving care of Smarty, Jenn, and Betty (Jenn's mom). Even when the family moves to Hollywood, California, his escapades continue unabated. Ramsay's little family unit grows with the addition of Mitzi (his mate) and Fluffy (his daughter). He even becomes an Instagram sensation as a surfing cat. Despite his many brushes with danger, Ramsay teaches us that adventure is the spice of life.
Ramsay the Cat is a fun and engaging read. It is filled with humor, action, drama, and angst as Ramsay navigates from one stunt to the next. I laughed out loud several times while reading about Ramsay's many hijinks. I think Wolf Norris authentically portrays the lifestyle of an audacious cat through Ramsay's various escapades. The author introduces Ramsay in exciting situations, described to grasp the reader's attention. This writing style proves to be very effective. The black-and-white illustrations of Ramsay on his exploits added a spark of visual appeal to the storyline. Once I started reading this book, I could not put it down. It is that addictive! This incredible book is 'purrfect' for young readers, animal lovers, and readers looking for an endearing story and a quick laugh."
