A case of mistaken identity allows "Kitty" to walk into a new house and receive the star treatment of food, a bath, and more! A delightful  story filled with illustrations to engage young readers for story time.

— From Staff Picks by Jessica

When Granny comes to cat-sit, she's in for a lot more than she anticipated in this sly, irreverent picture book by Rebecca Jordan-Glum (The Trouble with Penguins, Fall 2020).

"Don't worry about a thing," Granny said. "The cat will be just fine."

When Granny comes to cat-sit, she anticipates a little work, a few snuggles, and a good night's sleep. What she doesn't expect is CHAOS.

After Granny misplaces her glasses, she accidentally lets the cat out...and a raccoon in...a raccoon that looks a little like a cat. What follows is a raucous escapade that leaves in its wake one very confused Granny, one very upset cat, and one very satisfied raccoon.

"Irresistible fun with one rowdy raccoon." - Kirkus Reviews

"Jordan-Glum's text is spare, her jokes either marvelously underplayed or purely visual. Kitty is teeming with...choice visual touches, including cute curios like penguin salt-and-pepper shakers, color-bursting vintage-style wallpaper and intermittent glimpses of Satsuki, who, peering in the window, enjoys the show." - Shelf Awareness
