The Copycat

Itty Bitty Princess Kitty #8

by Melody Mews, Ellen Stubbings (Illustrator)

Itty realizes that she has a copycat in this eighth Itty Bitty Princess Kitty chapter book.

Itty meets a young tiger named Tessa and it turns out she goes to Itty’s school! Itty thinks she’s nice and funny, and she can tell Tessa likes hanging out with her and her friends. But then Tessa shows up wearing the same dress as Itty—the one Itty had told her about that is very special to her. And in art class, Tessa copies Itty’s drawing. Itty doesn’t understand why Tessa is being such a...copycat! Does she really want to be Itty’s friend? Or does she just want to copy whatever Itty is doing?

With easy-to-read language and illustrations on every page, the Itty Bitty Princess Kitty chapter books are perfect for emerging readers.

This is a cute series to read aloud for ages 5-7 and more advanced readers could probably read it on their own. My daughter loves the characters and this book in particular had a message about why a person/new friend might be a "copycat." It was a good book and my daughter is excited to read more Itty Bitty Princess Kitty novels.

Liked it at the moment, now it seems kind of weird. This Tessa Tiger keeps copying Kitty and she just gets all angry about it. As a second grader I loved this, now the concept seems strange. I recommend this book to girls 6-8.

Princess Itty and her friends meet a little tiger named Tessa. But when Tessa starts copying everything Itty does, Itty starts to feel frustrated. A good lesson in a mother teaching a daughter empathy and understanding.
