The Perfect Cat-Sitter

Title: The Perfect Cat-Sitter

Author: Ann Whitehead Nagda, illustrated by Stephanie Roth

Published: 2007

Pages: 104



This is a book I read out loud to the kids a few weeks ago.  We don't have any pets of our own other than the neighbor's cat that we feed, so the kids love books with animals on the cover.  

When Rana and her family have to go to India for a few weeks, her good friend Susan is more than happy to help out.  Susan reassures her friend, "Have a wonderful time and don't worry about a thing." 

Well, it's a good thing Susan keeps her correspondence to Rana rather vague, because she certainly wouldn't want to tell her that the cat gets sick, there is a deer in the backyard with Christmas lights stuck in their antlers, and that their friend Richard ends up getting hurt!

How will all this get resolved?  Is it ok to go near a wild deer?  Settle down with some Christmas cookies and find out in this perfect adventure!

xoxo,
Kelly
