"HI, CAT!"

Archie is putting on a show for the neighborhood kids when a stray cat jumps into the act and wreaks havoc, more than once! Archie loses his audience but feels that he may have won the affection of a cat: "I think that  cat just kinda liked me!" 

Fun Facts

JENNIE'S HAT:

Ezra was inspired to make this book by a very tiny picture, the size of a postage stamp, of an old couple feeding the pigeons who then came to rest on their shoulders and arms. You can see, almost anything can be used to make a wonderful book!    

PETER'S CHAIR:

Willie, Peter's dog, has the same name as Ezra's older brother.   Everyone loves Willie, who appears in quite a few of Ezra's books. Willie's importance in the books  reflects how much Ezra's brother meant to him in real life.

HI CAT!: 

Ezra shows how important animals were to him. As a boy he desperately wanted a pet, but his family could not afford one. The grown-up Ezra fulfilled his dream: he had a dog named Jake and a cat named Samantha.
