Publisher Description
Poor Callie feels totally ignored when a new baby arrives in the house. Even David - her special friend - pushes her away and no-one seems to appreciate the efforts she makes to welcome it. Even her carefully chosen gift (a dead bird) is greeted with horror rather than delight. And when she is banished to the kitchen, Callie sadly resolves that she is no longer wanted. She has no choice but to run away...
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Adele Geras's funny feline chapter-book series, The Cats of Cuckoo Square, returns with two new entries: Geejay the Hero and Callie's Kitten, both illus. by Tony Ross. In the first title, a new family moves in next door, banishing Geejay from what he considers to be his garden. In the second, Callie looks forward to the arrival of a new human baby in her family. But the reality turns out to be anything but pleasant. Both titles take a cat's-eye view of human foibles with a dry British humor, animated by Ross's witty and expressive line art.
