A hilarious picture book about one mischievous cat’s action-packed day—from an award-winning poet, with illustrations by a Caldecott Medalist.
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?
Kristen Tracy's ingenious verse and David Small's masterfully expressive and uproariously funny artwork capture all the charm and personality of these irresistible fur babies—hairballs and all. Here's the perfect gift for feline lovers of all ages!

What reviewers said
“A very good book and effective read-aloud about a pretty bad, but still loveable, kitty.”
“With whimsical wordplay, Tracy and Small chronicle a day in the life of a feline.”
“As a lightly anthropomorphized orange tabby moves through the day in this picture book, it takes on a variety of rhyming identities—many of them reflecting an inimitable sense of feline privilege and mischief.”
“The illustrations by David Small are so enjoyable . . . This is a fun one to snuggle up with.”
“[V]ery realistic . . . Cat owners will love that the sorts of things their own cats do are shown on the page. Small's illustrations are always marvelous . . . I can see this cat prowling around the neighborhood and stalking chipmunks right along with Schacher's Stretchy McHandsome.”
“Kristen Tracy delves into the feline mind with sensitivity, acceptance and humor . . . The results, abetted by David Small’s wonderfully evocative illustrations, are delightful . . . [S]o much fun.”
