just like everyone else but he ends up saving them. These remind the reader that even though they are animals they have attitudes of people.
Theme: This has a strong theme of the importance of being humble because you see through Buster's behaviors after a cat fell into his arms that fame can change any person. Given the directed audience it is important for it to be clear and I can see the ease of students making connections in their own lives or other books.

In Buster Baxter Cat Saver, Buster saves a cat. He is famous and he gets a little to dramatic. I recommend this book to 6 year olds and of course grownups. P.s.,have a good time reading!
