Background
Erin Hunter has a whole fleet of books based around the world of the Warriors. I believe this is the book that started it all. (Or at least, this is where my daughter told me to start.)
It is the story of Rusty, a cat who starts the book as a pet of some humans (Two-Legs) and is pulled into the wild world.
My Comments
It was a fun book and a relatively quick read. I like that I know what the kids are have read and it gave us a few things to talk through. However, it is a book for younger readers so it keeps the action moving and doesn’t spend too much time on detail. I understand now why my daughter loved them so much. It is all about cats. How they live, fight, and so on. Ms. Hunter did a great job of making the fuzzy lovable kitties into a fierce tribe of warriors living their life by a strict code of honor. I enjoyed it.
Recommendations
If you are 10 to 14 and love cats, you will love these books. If you are in your forties and your kids love these books, you will at least enjoy them and give you and the kids something to talk about.
