This book was ideal for reading aloud to my daughter, who is 5 years old and learning to read herself. The illustrations are very sweet, and the story is easy for children to relate to, even if they aren't Japanese cats. A good way to show children that learning to read takes a little time and courage.

Evocative prose and illustrations, very reminiscent of Banjo Patterson's The Man From Snowy River. My five year old daughter needed quite a few of the words explained to her, but she enjoyed the adventures of Sam Tully and Lightning Jack.
The glow-in-the-dark pictures in this book are a cute gimmick, but I was a bit disappointed to tell the truth. To see the glow effect you need to turn off the lights, and then you can't read the story. The text and more of the illustrations (even just the outlines) need to glow too, so we can read it in the dark!
