A Crazy Day at the Critter Café

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Lee White. "It was a quiet morning at the Critter Café. / The cook was dozing in his cheese soufflé." The day's idyll is shattered when a busload of poorly behaved creatures invade the restaurant ("Raccoons crawled atop their chairs. / Cow skateboarded down the stairs"). Finally, the fed-up waiter kicks them all out--or so he thinks. Mixed-media illustrations depict the delicious pandemonium.
Reviewer: Elissa Gershowitz
