Cat is not pleased to be tapped as substitute teacher. Not only is it cutting into his naptime, but a roomful of kittens is a little, well, terrifying. Still, off to school he goes, where, faced with six adorable kittens, he follows the lesson plan--music, building, painting--but in pure, mischievous, unadulterated Cat style. By the end, he and the kittens have formed a rock band, built a fish-spewing fountain, covered the classroom in blue, yellow, and red paint, and Cat has learned a thing or two about inspiring others by being himself. But even more heart-melting is what the kittens have learned from Cat.

It's back to school for the New York Times bestselling Cat when he steps in as a substitute teacher.

Cat is not pleased to be tapped as substitute teacher. Not only is it cutting into his naptime, but a roomful of kittens is a little . . . much.

At school, Cat follows the lesson plan of music, building, and painting-only in gradually more mischief-making Cat style. By the end, Cat has learned a thing or two about inspiring others by being himself. But even more heart-melting and humorous is what these adorable kittens have learned from Cat.

Read it forback-to-school and year-round-great as a holiday or year-end teacher's gift!

[A] back-to-school heart warmer. --The Wall Street Journal â Underwood and Rueda maintain the droll narration and spare visual humor of the previous books as Cat guides eager kittens through music (electric guitars are involved), building time (a fountain that spouts fish is involved), and art (major cleanup is involved). There's plenty to giggle over. --Publishers Weekly (starred review) Kids will think it is just purrfect. --The Washington Post The interplay between unseen narrator and substitute teacher Cat fuel the humor, and Claudia Rueda's adorable, deadpan illustrations carry the simple story. --Common Sense Media In a clean-up worthy of The Cat in the Hat, the kittens pitch in to save the day. . . .
