Findus Disappears!: The Adventures of Pettson and Findus

(4) K-3 Pettson, a lonely old farmer, meets cat Findus, who becomes his pet and best friend. Once Nordqvist establishes their relationship, he has Findus barely escaping from a badger, but the book's real focus is the charming cat-human bond. Nordqvist doesn't rush, offering naturalistic details in both the text and the plainspoken art, which makes the occasional incongruous foray into slapstick.
