Jamaica Is Thankful

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Anne Sibley O'Brien. Because Jamaica longs to keep the kitten a friend offers her, she hides Puffy temporarily in her closet. She discovers, however, that even the slightest contact with the kitten triggers her brother's allergies. Satisfyingly, she realizes what she must do and returns Puffy without being told. The illustrations feature attractive images of Jamaica; some of the other figures are a bit awkward.
