Kindergarten Cat
PreSchool-K—A charming if improbable tale of a stray cat who finds a home in a kindergarten class. Lewis's four lines of verse on each page form an engaging rhyme: "So he brought her inside,/All shivery scared/As if nobody wanted her/And nobody cared." The cat, named Tinker Toy, fits right in and begins to participate in the classroom activities, even answering the teacher: "'Foot fits in a shoe,/Hat sits on a head./What else goes together?'/'ME-YOU,' Tinker said." Collage, acrylic, pencil, and colored-pen illustrations feature an adorable orange tabby and excited children in a cozy, toy-strewn classroom.
