GoodReads Considerations or precautions for readers advisory: Potty humor Review citation: Binky the Space Cat Book Review. School Library Journal, 55 11 , Section source used to find the material: Nov 11, Amy added it Shelves: This book takes a stab at answering the question: Binky doesn't think of them as bugs - to him, they are menacing space aliens, and the world outside is outer space. He builds a space ship so that he can fly to the far reaches of the universe in order to battle these creatures in their home territory I loved this book - it's a cute story with a cuter character.

Binky is adorable throughout the book, whether he's wearing his little half-moon spectacles or tooting because the crunchy aliens gave him space-gas. The only problem I had with the book was the inconsistency in Binky's intelligence: He's smart enough to build a rocket ship, but not smart enough to realize that bugs aren't really aliens, and that he's really on Earth - not outer space. I also wish Spires had used more vibrant colors - she uses primarily muted tones, but I think a brighter, more varied palette would have given the book more punch.
