The Many Lives of Pusheen the Cat is a cute illustrated collection dedicated to everyone's favorite internet sensation, Pusheen. Due out 16th March 2021 from Simon & Schuster on their Gallery imprint, it's 192 pages and will be available in paperback and ebook formats.

This is exactly as described; a collection of color pages of Pusheen and friends in hundreds of poses with short, often humorous descriptions of a few words. The cartoons are from one to multiple panels and contain Pusheen in different guises and with different settings.

The chapters are arranged around Pusheen's different incarnations: Pusheen, Pusheenicorn, Super Pusheenicorn, Mermaid Pusheen, Dinosheen (& Pusheenosaurus), Pastel Pusheen, Dragonsheen, Detective Pusheen, and Pugsheen. The collection includes an absurd abundance of Pusheen doing adorable stuff.

Four stars. This would make a great public or classroom library acquisition, gift for a Pusheen fan, or potentially nice choice (bundled with drawing supplies?) for a young artist. Lots of fun. I've never met anyone who doesn't love Pusheen.

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
