(3) K-3 In his latest romp, cat Splat and his nemesis, Spike, bond over a mutual fear of the water when they take swimming lessons. Most of the story is from Splat's perspective; there's a quick switch to Spike's point of view that is somewhat jarring. However, the art--featuring puffball kitties with dorky expressions and even dorkier swim attire--offsets any missteps.
