The Catawampus Cat

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Gus Gordon. "The Catawampus Cat arrived early on a Tuesday morning...slightly askew." The sight of this diagonally oriented cat causes the townspeople to literally, then mentally, shift their perspectives. (True to feline form, once the whole bustling town is askew, the kitty straightens out and saunters away.) This funny celebration of the value of thinking differently is accompanied by lively mixed-media illustrations reminiscent of Oliver Jeffers's.
