This book was pretty funny and I think students would really enjoy hearing the adventures that happen to Mr. Putter and his cat in this book. Mr. Putter is worried that he isn't a very good neighbor to Mrs. Teaberry. She is always making him treats and all he does is eat her food. He decides that he wants to be a good neighbor to her, so when she says she is starting a knitting club he offers to come pour tea for her and her friends. This all sounds great, until Mr. Putters cat Tabby and Mrs. Teaberry's dog Zeke get added into the mix. Tabby and Zeke make a huge mess of things and end up ruining a sweater and a hat that Mrs. Teaberry's guest are working on and wearing. Mrs. Teaberry's guest are furious and Mr. Putter doesn't want them to be upset at sweet Mrs. Teaberry, so he sweet talks the ladies and saves the day. In the end Mrs. Teaberry tells him that he is a good neighbor, this makes Mr. Putter very happy.
I thought that this book was great! I loved the characters and I think that students will love them as well. The illustrations are great and are done by Arthur Howard. The pictures really bring the story to life and show just how silly and crazy things get when Tabby and Zeke start causing all the problems. This is just one book is the series Mr. Putter and Tabby, I can't wait to read a few more!
