Illustrated by
Marc Rosenthal.
Willy needs his stuffed monkey, Bobo, to get through the day. So, too, apparently, does cat Earl, who keeps snatching the coveted toy. Readers can easily sympathize with Willy (and perhaps also with Earl), as the determined preschooler searches for Bobo again and again. Uncluttered illustrations feature simple pencil outlines, with digitally colored hues that highlight the main characters.
