Review: Purrball Meets Burrball in Brazil by Anne Zoet

Every once in a while a children's book falls across my to read pile and it is refreshing. As someone who is typically reading novels, it is always a great change of pace when I can read a quick story that even reminds me of the books I read while growing up.

When I heard about Purrball Meets Burrball in Brazil, it sounded like a book that I would've read growing up. My parents were always buying great children's books that featured cats. The first book I ever read on my own was a book about a cat!

Purrball Meets Burrball in Brazil is a wonderful children's book by Anne Zoet. It tells the story of Darryl and his cat Purrball, who move to Brazil. But something goes horribly wrong, Purrball gets separated from his family during an earthquake. 

Purrball meets a sloth who he names Burrball, who shows him around. Purrball had his mom's phone and cord attached around his leg, and he realizes Burrball's sloth toes were better to type with than cat paws!

Purrball and Burrball go on an adventure, trying to reunite Purrball with his family. They had to charge the phone at a coffee shop! Without giving the story away, there is a happy ending

Purrball Meets Burrball in Brazil was an engaging and adorable story, that will land with young readers. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and highly recommend it to everyone with young kids.
