Cat Mania

This is a delightful book, full of fun but also providing a realistic and sympathetic view of a third grader as she adjusts to a new home and step dad. Coping with cats and their pranks while fitting into a new home and family are a challenge for Holly. Her settling into a new life style is presented with warmth and understanding. A reader of any age can share and understand each development. The book is a real treasure.

And, as always, Martha's got a real take on what it's like to be a kid these days.
