(4) PS Illustrated by Jenny Mattheson. In a rhyme patterned loosely after "The House That Jack Built," Willard tells the story of a mouse, a cat, and a runaway birthday cake. The strength of the whimsical story is the ending where readers are left to imagine the next series of catastrophes. Mattheson's oil paintings in purples and greens are too murky to convey the light tone of the text.
