Plot Synopsis
A cat comes in a home with two unattended children as the self appointed babysitter. Instead of watching the children, he wreaks havoc on the household that the children can't seem to stop.Reviews
- "This novel is 61 pages in length, and one can read it in five minutes or less, it is not until after multiple readings that the genius of this modern day master becomes apparent" - Craig Dyni, Michigan State University
- "He may be an old standby, but he never lets us down. When in doubt, turn to the story of the cat that transformed a dull, rainy afternoon into a magical and just-messy-enough adventure. There's another, hidden adventure, too: this book really will help children learn to read." - Amazon.com Editorial Review
