Since it was first published over fifty years ago, April's Kittens
remains a classic cat story and is now made available again in this
handsome new edition.
Many children understand April's dilemma when her cat, Sheba, has three
kittens. April is thrilled until her father insists that theirs is
strickly a one-cat household. April must give up three cats, but which
ones? The aptly named Charcoal? Tiger-striped Butch? Sweet-faced
Brenda?--or even Sheba?
How April eventually comes up with the perfect solutions makes for a
heartwarming story that has appealed to many young cat lovers and will
continue to delight generations of children everywhere. Clare's
Newberry's enchanting illustrations reflect her fondness for cats;
School Library Journal deemed these "beautiful drawings, so real one
wants to pet them."
