Page history last edited by Elizabeth 16 years, 4 months ago

Bibliographical information: Patricia Polacco, Mrs. Katz and Tush, Dragonfly Books, 1994

 

Brief summary:  The story begins when a young boy Larnel presents his recently-widowed neighbor with a scruffy kitten.  Through the year the celebrate holidays together and, when Tush gets lost, everyone pitches in to find her.

 

Comments:  I like this book because it illustrates an unconventional family.  Mrs. Katz and Larnel come from different backgrounds (he is African-American, she is a Jewish immigrant), but they love each other dearly.

 

Grade/Age level:  4-8

 

Cautions: none

 

If you like this book, you might also like . . .
