Bookroo's summary

Christmas is near, and Cat worries he's on Santa's naughty list. To secure his gifts, he dons a Santa suit, but his attempts at holiday cheer go hilariously wrong. As Cat stumbles through gift-giving and caroling, he discovers the true joy of generosity. Will he meet the real Santa and receive a surprise of his own? Join Cat on a festive adventure full of laughter and unexpected heart.

From the publisher

Just in time for the holidays—here comes Santa Cat! From the author of The Quiet Book and Here Comes the Easter Cat comes a hilarious holiday adventure! Cat took on a bunny in Here Comes the Easter Cat, but now Christmas is coming, and Cat has a hunch he’s not on Santa’s “nice” list. Which means? No presents for Cat. So he tries to be good, but children, it seems, aren’t wild for his brand of gift-giving. Still, Cat might surprise himself, and best of all, he may just get to meet the man in the red suit himself—and receive a holiday surprise of his own. Fans of Pete the Cat, Splat the Cat, and Bad Kitty will delight in this holiday treat.

5.0

I like "the cat books," so I quite enjoyed this one too. The illustrations tell half the story and it's quite entertaining, plus the message is great for Christmas—giving is better than getting!

I love this series and this Christmas version about being nice and giving didn't let me down. :) The book is funny and I love the simple illustrations that tell a lot of the story and show Cat's personality more.
