About this audiobook
1964 Newbery Medal winner, It's Like This, Cat is the story of a young man, Dave Mitchell, and how he grew to maturity, helped along indirectly by a stray cat that he brought home from Crazy Kate, the neighborhood Cat Lady. Dave lives in New York City with his lawyer father and his mother, who has bouts of asthma brought on by family strife. The cat, named "Cat" lives a wild life that brings Dave in contact with a future friend and girl friend. Dave's adventures take him throughout areas of New York City, and the reader is treated to descriptions of famous city landmarks. With Dave's new cat-related experiences comes an increased appreciation for his parents and deepening care for his new friends. (Summary by Brenda Price)

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I remember the print version of this book from my childhood! I’m a cat lover from years past. I know that the book will be especially enjoyable to a child or teen who also loves cats. (Possibly *only* cat lovers will pick up this old 1961 Newbury winner.) Its style feels dated, but I didn’t catch anything offensive about its “datedness.” ?
