LaRue Across America: Postcards from the Vacation

(3) K-3 Dog-scribe Ike LaRue pens postcards to his neighbor, Mrs. Higgins, whose cats--much to Ike's chagrin--accompany him on vacation. The notes start off polite ("I am certain that they would be happier at home") and grow increasingly desperate ("Perhaps I will mail myself home"). Teague's top-notch, larger-than-life double-page-spread illustrations reveal the humorous truths behind Ike's cushy vacation.
