From School Library Journal
K-Gr 2-When Holly wishes on a falling star for a kitten, she is unprepared for the big, beat-up-looking stray that lands with a crash on her windowsill. Claiming it was a mistake, she shoos the cat away, but Tom is undeterred and, over the next day, slowly worms his way into her heart. That evening, as the snow swirls around outside, she beckons him into the house, where she dries and feeds him, and he settles down on her bed. He has become her "wish come true cat." Colorful, average-quality drawings capture the feline's scruffiness, while his antics will charm readers. With the moral that wishes don't always come true as we expect them to, this is a pleasant-enough tale to share during storytime.
