Cat Snatching Children’s Book Captures Idea Inspired by Three-Year-Old




The 411 by Maria: 
 
Susie is spoiled. She is so spoiled she thinks she can have everything she wants and if you don't give it to her, she will take it. Even your cat. She is in love with Simon the cat who is owned by Mrs. Payne. Susie comes up with a plan to snatch him and keep her as her very own but when things don't go her way. She has no choice but to apologize and give him back to Ms. Payne.
 
The kids found the book funny, they thought Susie was a brat and I love Larry for it. We are not meant to have everything we want which is a lesson I constantly try to teach to my children. It is good to want but if you get everything you want, you have nothing left to want. Wanting is good for the soul and it keeps you trying hard. Plus, we all know, you can't always get what you want! 
 
The story is cute and the pictures adorable. 
 
Great read and I can't wait to loan it to Goddess' class for her teacher to read to the kids.

  1. Maria,

    Sorry to put this question here but, I could not find an e-mail address on your profile.

    I would like to know if you are still doing Color Carnival. I have been away from blogging for a while due to illness and since returning I have not seen any linkup for CC.

  2. Rita,
    Sorry to hear you were unwell.
    We are up. Usually up by Saturday night/Sunday morning but putting it up for you right now.
    The last few posts since I have been working remotely haven't been linked probably so they weren't showing up under the CC button.
    Linked them just now, thanks for the reminder. Hopefully MY computer will be working soon and I won't always be in such a rush to get off someone elses computer. I hate bothering people.
    Thanks for following.
