(2) K-3 Illustrated by Birgitta Sif. Compassionate Miss Hazeltine opens her home to so-called "hopeless" scaredy-cats unwanted by other people. When Miss Hazeltine trips and falls into a ditch while replenishing the milk supply, a particularly small and fearful cat named Crumb summons his courage to lead the others in a search party. Loose pencil lines (digitally colored in a muted palette) capture the text's gentle humor.
