(3) K-3 Illustrated by David Parkins. Though Dad complains vehemently every time Mom brings home a stray cat, she convinces him to keep each homeless feline: "His leg is broken. He can't walk. He's easy pickings for a hawk." Five cats later, Dad puts his foot down--and adopts a dog. The rollicking rhyming tale with its comical pen-and-ink and watercolor illustrations is an enjoyable read-aloud for pet lovers.
