If I'm honest, it took a couple readings of this book to sell me. Not because it was poorly written or illustrated, but because I was worried it contained too many words for my young children and that they would lose interest.They didn't.
So...I figured when they chose it for a second reading they'd most certainly ditch it when we reached the third or fourth page.
Again, they didn't.
What an excellent example of how I underestimate my children: they loved this story and were willing to hear every important word.
Mrs. Crump does not want to keep the cat that showed up one day on her doorstep. However, over the course of the next few days she finds herself buying cream and other small 'necessary' things for the cat. When no one responds to her posted ad, she finds herself happy to keep the cat.
