Cat's Very Good Day

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A hilarious picture book about one mischievous cat’s action-packed day, told through clever rhyme and exuberant art from award-winning creators.

It's a busy day for Cat, who is living his best life and managing to cause plenty of trouble along the way! After all, he's a mirror attacker and a morning-tea whacker. A potted-plant disaster and an acrobat master. A vacuum avoider and a sofa destroyer.

But when thunder and lightning strike, it turns out he's a dark-storm worrier and a back-closet scurrier. A curled-up loner and a scaredy-cat groaner. Once the storm passes, though, is it possible Cat just might be a moonlight cuddler and all-night snuggler at heart?

Cat's Very Good Day features Kristen Tracy's ingenious verse and David Small's masterfully expressive and uproariously funny artwork, capturing all the charm and personality of these irresistible fur babies—hairballs and all.
