Fat Cat: A Danish Folktale

32 pp. | August | September, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-87483-616-6 $$15.95
(3) K-3 Illustrated by Julie Paschkis. The cat in this tale eats everything in sight: thirty-five pies, a washerwoman, a company of soldiers, a king riding on his elephant, and even his friend Mouse. It is Mouse with her sewing kit who opens up Cat's stomach, lets everyone out, and sews him back up again. The paintings with their folkloric touches contain funny details, and documentation about the folktale is provided.
