3 stars I received this book through Goodreads in exchange for an honest review.As far as I’m concerned, everyone should know about Victoria Woodhull and this book is a great place to start. I’ll admit, I had never heard of her before winning this book, but I am so glad that I was able to…

5 stars A very cute and funny book for fans of Grumpy Cat. Not a very well-developed story, but it is entertaining and stays true to the Grumpy Cat persona. The illustrations were adorable. I loved the contrast of Grumpy Cat with all of the other happy animals. A fun little book for those who…
