Cat, You Better Come Home

Reissue (1995)
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Steve Johnson & Lou Fancher. In a rather sophisticated rhymed story based on one of Keillor's witty "Cat Songs," a disgruntled feline leaves home, makes a killing doing cat-food commercials, and lives in luxury until her fortunes change. She comes back in a sorry state, and the narrator welcomes her joyfully. Johnson and Fancher use sly details and arresting perspectives in their rich paintings.
