I enjoy Jan Brett's books. However,this one was a disappointment. The pictures are interesting and give way for lots of conversation but the writing itself fell flat. The idea of the story was more interesting than the story itself. There was not the usual delight and flow in wording that I have come to expect from Brett's artistry. Comet's Nine Lives is not a book I would recommend. Another book by Jan Brett,The First Dog, is a new favorite of ours I recommend it instead.
