This was one of my favorite books as a child, and I'm delighted beyond words that I can still enjoy it re-reading it as an adult.
Socks's cat personality is just so fantastically spot on. Everything from the tail curving into a question mark to the need to teach his humans lessons about allowing him in laps, to the inability to understand why they get upset when they should know better than to leave interesting things out for him to play with. Absolutely adorable!
I'm excited to be able to share this with my students!
