Illustrated by
Anne Mortimer.
Adapted from Margaret Wise Brown's 1955 collection Sneakers: Seven Stories about a Cat, the lyrical text follows "a little fat cat" on his first visit to the seashore. Nothing momentous happens, but his surroundings are conveyed with the sensory detail that Brown excelled at depicting. Realistic paintings accompany the text.
