and
Welcome to The Kid’s Korner.
I decided to do this feature as I have so many great children’s books to share. From picture books, to books for beginning readers, to middle graders, I have plenty of fun ones.
Today I’m sharing a really fun book.
Splat The Cat
What Was That?
by Rob Scotton
Genre: Children’s / Halloween / A Lift The Flap Book
My Review
Splat, a black cat. How fun is that?
It’s Halloween and Splat and his friends, Spike and Seymour are at the last house on their trick-or-treat route. Splat doesn’t want anything to do with the creepy old house. It’s supposed to be haunted. But then Seymour gets lost and Splat and Spike have to find him.
Such a fun little book. Splat and his friends are adorable and this lift-the-flap book shows them in glossy, colorful illustrations. I remember this type of book when I was little. I read it over and over, excited every time I peeked behind one of the flaps.
Little ones will be giggling, begging to be the one to lift a flap and see what’s under it. Simply written and not really scary, it’s a fun Halloween story.
This is a series and there are plenty more adventures with these delightful characters.
Too cute!

Synopsis
Splat the Cat and his friends have a Halloween adventure in Splat the Cat: What Was That?, a lift-the-flap book by Rob Scotton, creator of the beloved Russell the Sheep.
Halloween should be a black cat’s favorite holiday, but Spat the Cat is nervous about visiting a creepy haunted house. He’s worried it will be too scary. Splat’s friend Spike tells Splat not to be a scaredy-cat—the haunted house is just for fun!
Splat and Spike’s visit to the haunted house turns into a rescue mission when Splat’s pet mouse, Seymour, gets lost inside.
Kids will relate to Splat’s apprehension about visiting a haunted house and they’ll enjoy the exciting surprises under every flap in the funny, spooky book.
Here’s a peek inside.
And a peek under the flap.

They grow up so fast. Guess I’ll enjoy it for them. LOL
I love Splat, he is so fun. 🙂
I kept saying Splat The Cat. LOL Rolls right off the tongue.
We own Splat the Cat, I scream for Ice Cream, and it is my grandson’s FAVORITE book. I can’t even tell you how many times I have read it. He would love this Halloween version!!
I picked this up at a used book stories for pennies. Now I’m hooked on them. LOL
Cute.

Sure is. I kept going back and reading it again:)
I love cats so that cover is…so adorable. The illustrations are also. Darn, but my grandchildren are too old for this, but I am going to be having a great-grandchild soon so I will remember this book for down the line some.
I had such fun with this book. I loved ones like this as a little girl. Still do. LOL
My granddaughter absolutely loves Splat!
It sure is a cute story. I want to read the others now.
Awww… I need to get another younger munchkin to babysit. I miss reading picture books to the girls. They are both too old for these now. ?
My son is too old too. Not me. LOL I love reading and sharing children’s books.
