Mrs. McTats and Her Houseful of Cats

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Joan Rankin. Affable cartoon images of alphabetically named cats (and one dog) parade piecemeal through this rhyming tale about a woman who opens her heart and home to a grand total of twenty-six pets, twenty-five of which show up on her doorstep. The muted watercolor illustrations delightfully accomplish the difficult feat of imparting a distinct personality to each feline.
Reviewer: Christine M. Heppermann
