Tumford the Terrible

(4) K-3 Cat Tumford is an unrepentant troublemaker: "Of all of the things / he thought were the worst... / saying 'I'm sorry' most surely came first." After shaming his owners, he decides to apologize and immediately feels better. The story's rhymes, generally snappy, may distract readers from the overtness of the message. Illustrations show the kitty as more curious than malicious.
