Gr 1-2-Mr. Putter and his cat have never had any problems sleeping. They could sleep anywhere at anytime. One night, however, Mr. Putter's stomach is grumbling and he is restless. Earlier that evening Mrs. Teaberry had made pineapple jelly rolls, and Mr. Putter ate 21 of them. To help his stomach, he and Tabby take a walk to look at the stars and run into Mrs. Teaberry and her dog, Zeke, who also ate too many jelly rolls. With soft pencil sketches colored with watercolor and gouache, the amusing illustrations energize the story and add to the fun. An excellent choice for beginning and developing readers.-Erika Qualls, Ela Area Public Library District, Lake Zurich, IL (c) Copyright 2010.
