Review by Publisher's Weekly Review

Compiling five favorite tales from Esther Averill's Cat Club series, first published between 1944 and 1953, Jenny and the Cat Club chronicles the feline heroine, Jenny Linsky, as she romps around Greenwich Village with her troupe of felicitous furry friends. Averill's illustrations should be as endearing to new readers as to those who enjoyed them during their first release. (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Review by Horn Book Review

This collection of five of the thirteen stories Averill wrote about Jenny Linsky, a plucky little black cat whose bright red scarf gives her courage, is a welcome reissue. With endearingly simple illustrations, the stories can be easily read by second graders and enjoyed by children as young as four. (c) Copyright 2010.
