Mr. King's Machine

32 pp. | Kids Can | April, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-1-77138-021-8 $16.95
(3) K-3 In his third outing, crown-wearing cat Mr. King builds a "Caterpillar-Catcher" to thwart the varmint eating his flowers. Unfortunately, he doesn't notice that his vehicle is spewing exhaust--far worse for flowers than caterpillars are. The solution, employing both machine and imagination, is inspired, and the sunny multi-media art full of animal junior activists helps the environmental message go down easy.
