These are so fun to read to my 7 year old. This one was a little moralistic for me, but really you cannot go wrong with this series for the early elementary kids.

Of refugee kittens from another neighborhood and solving conflicts that sometimes arise out of misunderstandings. Appropriate and meaningful (plus I learned about how cats are territorial by nature and how to potentially achieve peace with living with more than one)

So cute and I loved the author. I liked how he explained that the kittens were a metaphor for immigrants in a new, unknown location. What a nice way to handle this and teach them to be thoughtful while also laughing.

When a conflict in a local neighborhood arises some kittens are left in need of homes. Kitty's family decides to take in a group of kittens to foster until their shelter is repaired. Kitty of course is not happy about this arrangement and eventually turns to Uncle Murray for refuge.

Cute and funny story with a not-so-subtle message to give refugees, especially children, a chance/compassion/assistance. There's a note in the book that some of the proceeds are going to relief organizations which makes me happy I bought the book instead of getting it from the library. A classic Bad Kitty story. I'm not sure the intended audience will get the parallels to refugees, but the adults reading to/with them will.

Thinly veiled look at conflicts that displace people and how others can welcome them. Also includes info about cats and how to help them get along. Fans of the series will enjoy this.
