The Princess in Black may know how to handle all kinds of monsters, but a kitten set on destruction? Me-OW!

Duchess Wigtower had heard that pets are fun, but all her kitten has gotten her is nine lives’ worth of problems. Eeeeek! It’s time for someone else to deal with this catastrophe. Princess Magnolia is thrilled when a kitten lands on her doorstep, but just as she’s about to play with Plumpkins (or should it be Hugmaster Floof?), the monster alarm goes off. When Princess Magnolia returns to her castle, her furry companion has carved up the wallpaper! In fact, each time Princess Magnolia leaves to help the Goat Avenger fight a very grouchy monster, her feline friend wreaks havoc. Has the Princess in Black finally met her match? Ten years after she first donned her cape, the Princess in Black returns for a purrfectly hilarious entry to the New York Times best-selling series.

Reviews for The Princess in Black and the Kitty Catastrophe

The early chapter book series The Princess in Black likely needs no introduction. It’s one of the most popular chapter book series, and if you haven’t read them yet, I can’t recommend them highly enough. They’re perfect for burgeoning readers, with lots of illustrations and great line spacing between words and lines. The eleventh book in the series centers an ornery cat who will make life as difficult as possible for Princess Magnolia. But also, maybe she’s the perfect partner for The Princess in Black. As the two learn more about each other, a bored monster stacks goats and harasses the Goat Avenger. But maybe the monster holds the key to how to make the new kitty happy? —Book Riot Pham's colorful, cartoon art shines when portraying the mischievous kitty's defiant expressions as he wreaks havoc. —Booklist
