What a charming little gem! Great representation with Meow being neurodiverse and (as the book description hints) gender non-conforming/non-binary! The illustrations were really cute - done in a way I think kids will find engaging and entertaining.

Some parts seemed disjointed, like how a banana cannon seemed to appear out of nowhere? But all in all, I'd highly suggest.
