Cats Are Cats

(3) K-3 Miss Bell names her tiny striped kitten Tiger--which proves prophetic when he grows (and grows and grows) to full tiger size. Miss Bell's unflappable nature serves her well when a fish she gets for Tiger follows a similar trajectory. The illustrations' humorous details (a mantle full of Tiger pictures, shocked bystanders during an outing) are in perfect counterpoint to the deadpan text.
