Subtle humor, sight words, and lots of repetition make this a unique and fun first independent reading book. And just when the reader thinks the cat will finally get his nap, a clever twist of irony will have children laughing hysterically. The girl finally gives up and asks the cat to stay, and that’s when he finally gets up—and runs away!
