Drat That Cat!

24 pp. | Andersen | September, 2013 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4677-2030-4 $16.95
(3) K-3 Suzy misbehaves constantly, prompting her family members to exclaim "Drat that cat!" But after Suzy (supposedly) falls ill, they bend over backward to show their affection and concern. The text expertly paces Suzy's outrageous behavior, her decline into "illness," and her family's over-the-top coddling for a surprise ending. Scribbly pen, ink, and watercolor illustrations capture Suzy's utterly feline self-satisfaction at outsmarting her humans.
