Editor's Review ★★★★☆

AudioBook Atlas

Melinda Sewak’s voice is a delight to listen to in 'The Trouble with Children (According to Cat).' Her delivery captures the essence of catlike curiosity and disdain for human behavior. Despite its brevity, the audiobook packs an emotional punch, highlighting the often-overlooked side of parenthood. The pacing is brisk yet engaging, making it hard to stop listening. However, some parts feel a bit rushed, perhaps due to the limited runtime. This could leave listeners wishing for more depth in certain scenarios. Overall, 'The Trouble with Children' is a charming and quick listen that will appeal to both cat lovers and parents looking for a humorous respite from daily life.
