I Don't Like Gloria!

32 pp. | Candlewick | February, 2007 | Trade ISBN 978-0-7636-3202-1 $15.99
(3) PS Illustrated by Margaret Chamberlain. Gloria the cat's arrival causes canine Calvin to endure paroxysms of resentment, anxiety, and gloom as his walks are forgotten and his food bowl co-opted. Strategically placed bold typeface accentuates Calvin's indignant, tragicomic tone. The illustrations--clean pencil drawings with digital color and texturing in a cheerful but restrained palette--capture Calvin's spiraling emotions. A twist ending promises mischief in Calvin's future.
