Favorite Book Fridays: Cat Up a Tree
Nana Quimby looked out her window and saw one cat up the tree. The next time she looked out her window, she saw two cats up the tree. The story continues with more cats up in the tree. Everytime she called a local service employee for help, they always respond with saying they can't help her get the cats out of the tree. After numberous attempts for help, she gives up, throws the phone out the window, and the cats walk along the phone cord from the tree through Nana Quimby's window and into her apartment. Nana and the cats take a nice nap when the police station, the fire station, the post office, and the library make distress calls with mice invading the city. It's too late for the cats to help keep the mice population down because they are all too busy purring!
Cat Up a Tree by John and Ann Hassett is one of my many favorite books that I like to read aloud at preschool story time. This book has great repetition and I just love the illustrations and the cute whimsical cats. I hope you'll enjoy it too!!!
