Illustrated by
Joanna Harrison.
Clean, simple watercolors defined with soft lines and arranged in panels show a girl following her cat out the door, through the park, and back home. The rhyming text is set in a large typeface on a white background, and some of the action words are emphasized with special fonts. The awkward and jerky cadence of the text, however, makes it difficult to read.
