Catality is a new kind of superhero. For starters, he’s a cat.  But what makes him truly unique is that he can move from “reality” to “reality”, meaning that he can travel in any computer world or land.  Like all superheroes, he has an archenemy, Striple, a cat wearing…well…wearing a cat suit.  Striple is powerful and enlists the help of various other villains like the Baboon Knight and Blabbering Bee to try to thwart Catality.The illustrations here are bright and large and combined with the rhyming story, are reminiscent of the Batman television series of the 1960s and graphic novels of the same time period.  The story, though, is geared directly toward children, who will likely find the pictures and rhymes as well as the concept of reality-jumping entrancing.  Though not long, this book is filled with color and action and a variety of characters that will absorb young children’s’ attention and excite them.  The author uses quite a few small (but not necessarily common) words that early readers could easily learn after a few readings.  A unique kids book and highly recommended.
