Cat Who Got Carried Away by Ahlberg Allan
In this Gaskitts story, Gus and Gloria have a lot of running to do, Mrs Gaskitt hardly ever gets out of bed and something dreadful happens to Horace! Also starring in the story are: a brainy rat named Randolph; a barking pram; and a considerable number of penguins.
"* "Ahlberg has created another mini-masterpiece, deftly combining the familiar and the unpredictable to keep readers on their toesKatherine McEwen's exuberant illustrations capture the pace and humour. Early readers deserve more books like this." TES Primary * "The eleven short chapters, easy sentence structure, action-packed text and clear design combine to make this just right for emergent readers. Yet it is also a delight to read aloud and great fun for adult and child to share and laugh over together." The Bookseller * "Huge fun and ideal for early readers." The Independent on Sunday * "Ahlberg's wit and skill for spinning a great yarn are evident, as always, while McEwen's illustrations provide the perfect visual complement." Junior
