The Trouble with Cats

76 pp. | Holiday | March, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1479-5 $$15.95
(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Cat Bowman Smith. Holly doesn't like her new school and she certainly doesn't like sharing her mother with her new stepdad or his four trouble-making cats. Finally, Holly realizes the problem isn't the cats but her failure to recognize the positives around her. The intermittent line drawings have frenetic hatch-marked shading that makes the action and characters hard to discern, but the story's emotions are realistic.
