One very special Saturday, Dad-Cat decides to take Waffles and his sister Pancake to the big city to go to the science museum! While they're there, the kittens see extraordinary things, like dino-cats, hairballs in 4D, and even the planetarium. But as the kittens learn about constellations and Neil Pawstrong, they get separated from Dad-Cat. Oh no!
Will the kittens be able to find their (possibly invisible) Dad-Cat? Or will they get stuck living in the museum and eating star tots and tuna melts fur-ever?! This early graphic novel series is chock-full of educational facts about space--perfect for young readers.

School Library Journal Review
Gr 1--3--In this spin-off of Brockington's immensely popular "CatStronauts" series, kittens Waffles and Pancake are spending the weekend with their dad. Before the young cats head home to their mother's house, they and their dad stop off at the science museum in the Big City. While exploring the museum, the cat family gets separated and the kittens imagine the fun and worries of living in the museum. Thankfully they are soon reunited and the kittens get safely home to Mom-Cat's house. Young readers will enjoy this accessible, full-color graphic novel. While some of the vocabulary is somewhat complex for emerging independent readers, the illustrations offer helpful context. The kittens are cute and funny, and children will relate to the fun and excitement of visiting a museum. Young readers whose parents don't live together will appreciate the inclusion of this family perspective. Fans of the original "CatStronauts" series, as well as slightly younger readers, will enjoy this Earth-bound story of these kitten characters. VERDICT This silly, colorful tale will appeal to graphic novel enthusiasts over a wide range of reading levels.--Ellen Conlin, Naperville P.L., IL
Publisher's Weekly Review
In this kitten-focused spin-off of Brockington's CatStronauts series, siblings Pancake (a tan cat in a purple rainbow shirt) and Waffles (a cream kitty sporting a yellow fish top) are eager to visit the Big City Science Museum. Before heading to Mom-Cat's house, the siblings and Dad-Cat make their way through the museum's feline-inspired exhibits, which feature saber-toothed specimens in the hall of dino-cats, 4-D hairballs with an attendant gross-out video, and a planetarium: "The ancient cats saw pictures in groups of stars." When the end of a CatStronauts-centered space tour finds the kittens separated from Dad-Cat, they show good judgment in asking for help--then contemplate what a "FUR-EVER" museum visit would involve. Filled with humorous catchphrases ("That's one small step for cats, one giant pounce for feline-kind") and regular, enthusiastic meal breaks (the family stuffs food into their faces with comedic tenacity), Brockington's anthropomorphic world is rendered in blocky shapes and bright colors. If the plot seems a little lean, a focus on fostering interests and family fun--"My favorite part was all of it," says Dad-Cat--proves winning. Ages 6--9. (Sept.)
Kirkus Review
It's just another day in the kittenhood of brave (but hungry) space pilot Waffles. After six volumes of the CatStronauts' adventures in outer space, cartoonist Brockington turns to the past to tell a tale of Waffles' youth with sibling Pancake. The two kitties are spending Saturday with Dad-Cat before he drops them at Mom-Cat's house. They're looking forward to a day at the science museum in the Big City. They check out some dino-cat bones and an exhibit on hairballs (in 4-D) before heading to the planetarium. Both kittens enjoy a show about constellations…but their favorite time of day follows: lunch. Waffles' legendary appetite's a family trait. In the Hall of Planets they learn about the moon landing, but the kittens are distracted by a tour group and lose track of Dad-Cat. After a quick moment of panic, they talk to the tour guide, who reunites them with Dad-Cat, and the trio head to Mom-Cat's house. The day was fun, but lunch was still the kittens' favorite. (Heartwarmingly, Dad-Cat liked spending the day with his kittens.) Fans of the original CatStronauts series may enjoy watching Waffles' love of science spark, but those new to this catcentric world may be less than engaged by this day-in-the-life tale. Still, the narrative weaves in nice (if felinized) tidbits of information and pointers on what to do when separated from grown-ups: a plus. Colorful cartoon panels and a science-forward storyline make this spinoff series opener a solid selection. (Graphic science fiction. 6-10) Copyright (c) Kirkus Reviews, used with permission.
