First, I must share how much Trent loves the Catstronaut series. It was the first series that he found on his own, loved, and even asked his librarian to get the rest of the series for him. When he heard I was going to get and review a Catstronaut prequel, Trent was SO EXCITED! And he loved it, too.
This prequel sets up the stage for the Catstronaut books. It shows where Waffles and Pancakes got their love for science which is a great set up for the main series. I also love that this book is for younger readers so will be a great scaffold.
I also really liked the cross-curricular aspect of the graphic novel. It adds an extra element to it that will lend to it being a great addition to home, classroom, and school libraries.

We’ve read this twice already. The six year old loves it, I found it boring. We’re both right. It’s a much thinner story than Catstronauts, but it’s perfect for new readers. The art and jokes remain adorable. She’ll read the next installment without me, as she should.

Drew Brockington takes his CatStronaut fans back to when Waffles was a kitten. Waffles and his sister Pancake go on a trip to the Science Museum with their Dad-Cat. They learn all about dino-cats, hairballs, and space. Of course there is a bit of an adventure too. This is a fun early reader graphic novel for fans of Narwhal & Jelly or Elephant & Piggie.
