Reviews for John Brown, Rose & The Midnight Cat
Rating: 4 out of 5 stars
4/5
3 ratings3 reviews
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book shows children that it is okay to make run in their worlds for other things and it is okay to change, even though it is new and scary. John Brown is an adorable dog who belongs to Rose, an older woman or lives on her own, and he does not want anything to do with the midnight cat. One day when Rose falls sick, he realizes that the desire that Rose has for the cat overshadows his need to keep them separate and he invites the cat in. Acceptance makes everyone content in the end.
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5An odd book. For the first few pages I thought I'd love it (I'm a sucker for faithful pet stories), but by the end of the book I was completely flummoxed. Who's the audience for this book? If you identify with Rose, it's a lesson in manipulative passive-aggressive behaviour, if you identify with the dog, yikes, you're basically taught to capitulate to anything in order to hold onto love (hello, future domestic abuse victims), and if you identify with the cat, well, enjoy your career as a stalker.
Apparently it's a "new edition of this classic and beautiful book." Okay, then ...
(Note: 5 stars = amazing, wonderful, 4 = very good book, 3 = decent read, 2 = disappointing, 1 = awful, just awful. I'm fairly good at picking for myself so end up with a lot of 4s). I feel a lot of readers automatically render any book they enjoy 5, but I grade on a curve! - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The story a bittersweet one about lost loves and new loves. John Brown the dog has always been there for Rose and now with the arrival of the Midnight Cat he worries that he will be replaced and no longer needed (no longer loved). Fortunately there's a happy ending for everyone.
