K-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Jane Manning.
Mac persuades his crotchety pal Cheese to go on a trip to the beach, but they become so distracted with packing that they miss their bus. To ease Mac's disappointment, Cheese finds a way to bring the sea to them. The bouncy rhymes carrying the story along have a hint of Dr. Seuss; comical illustrations clearly express the cats' differing temperaments.
