Our review
Ollie and her cat Pumpkin discover a lost kitten during an autumn outing and must decide how to help it while Halloween weather closes in. Foil and seasonal details make the search visually inviting, but the emotional task is responsible care for an animal that is not theirs.
Use it to discuss finding an owner rather than immediately keeping a stray. Happy Halloween, Biscuit! offers a predictable puppy-centered holiday routine; Little Kitten adds a rescue problem, uncertainty, and a quieter autumn atmosphere.
Before you buy it
A lost young animal and worsening weather can worry sensitive readers; real strays should be handled with adult and shelter guidance.
