Truck-lover Leo only has eyes for big rigs; he wants nothing to do with the pet cat, Lola, that Mama surprises him with. After some impressive rescue work (Bunny is trapped in a pretend burning building), Lola wins Leo over. Samuels gets the details of common childhood experiences just right in both the colorful, fine-lined illustrations and the affectionate text.
