Really cute little audio book me and my daughter listened to at bedtime. She loved hearing about the kittens adventures and was scared along with them when they got into trouble and then was happy with them when they were safe!!
Overall an enjoyable read for parents reading to children or just a young child able to read on there own. The Midnight Visitor (Museum Kittens) Cute book but felt it was a bit too wordy. I started skipping chunks just to finish. The Midnight Visitor (Museum Kittens) Three kittens (Tasha, Boris, and Bianca) live with their family in the basement of a museum, where the night guard keeps them to scare away the rats. The kittens are intrigued when a stray cat brings in a black kitten, Peter, to live in the museum. Tasha, Boris, and Bianca are not sure they want to welcome Peter. He is so different, and no one knows where he is from. Peter will have to prove his worth if he wants to become a museum kitten.
This is such an adorable book! The kittens are so cute, and I love the little adventures they have. The plot is simple, but interesting. The writing style is perfect for this age group, and even enjoyable for an adult to read.
I love the world-building of the museum and the family of cats. The old grandfather cat presides over the museum, and the caring mother cat herds the kittens into some semblance of order.
The best thing about this book was the sibling relationships between Bianca, Tasha, and Boris. They squabble and tease each other. They make mistakes, and are not always kind or wise. But they learn and grow and try to do better. When Peter is thrown into the middle of their sibling rivalry, it really mixes things up!
The illustrations are beautiful, and really bring the story to life. Seeing the artwork of the kittens makes me want to give them a cuddle!

The Midnight Visitor (Museum Kittens) It's too bad that this early chapter book series hasn't received much attention because it's a cat-lover's dream. A colony of cats, many descended from the elderly Grandpa Ivan, live in the basement of a museum. The grumpy Night Guard feeds the cats as part of his responsibilities, and the cats keep the area free of rats or at least intimidate them so much that they don't come out when there are visitors. In this first installment in the series, a small black kitten named Peter joins Tasha, Bianca, and Boris, all part of the same litter. At first the kittens aren't very friendly to Peter, and Boris especially makes disparaging remarks about Peter. But Tasha feels drawn to the new arrival, and befriends him. The kittens have a bit of an accident with some dinosaur bones because of Boris's clumsiness. While the plot and idea for having a story centered around cats in such a place are appealing on their own merits, what makes this tale work so well is how the author has developed the characters so well. Each cat is unique and has its own quirks, as is the case with felines around the world. And the illustrations? The expressive eyes and faces of those kittens will tug at readers' heartstrings and prompt them to nestle with their own cats and maybe even give them a fish treat or two. That is, if they can get them to come when they call. Sometimes mine will, and sometimes, they seem to be deaf to all my entreaties. The Midnight Visitor (Museum Kittens) A new edition to the museum does feel like he fits in with the other cats. Children can easily identify. The Midnight Visitor (Museum Kittens)
Brave, clever and never more than a whisker away from adventure! When the museum's visitors are gone for the day, it's time for the cats to come out and play…
One stormy night a little black kitten appears on the museum steps. Tabby cat Tasha is delighted to show Peter the museum's passageways and secret corners but the other cats aren't as keen to welcome the new arrival. Determined to prove that Peter is just as much of a museum cat as any of the others, Tasha takes him on a rat hunt. But the pair’s quest almost ends in disaster when they find themselves in the Dinosaur Gallery, with its famous T-Rex skeleton…

This was adorable... Such a delightful concept, and such a sweet set of characters.
I always know that I’m loving a story when I reach the last page and feel sad that there isn’t more.
As a child I would have loved to visit this museum... and as adult I’m glad my imagination is given the chance. The Midnight Visitor (Museum Kittens) Cute and heartwarming story about being an outsider and learning to belong. I love the idea of the museum cats - who hasn’t wanted to explore a museum at night? - and all their characters and personalities. Looking forward to reading this with my niece and returning to the series. The Midnight Visitor (Museum Kittens)
