    A girl pens an adventure for her pet kitten, but after his fearful reaction she realizes her next story should probably have a little less pizzazz.
  • Baker & Taylor
    Lacking interest in his human's story about a ball of yarn, a kitten asks for a tiger-worthy adventure and learns to be careful about what he wishes for when the resulting tale becomes a bit too scary. By the creator of Emerson Barks.
  • Random House, Inc.
    A kitten insists that his little-girl owner write an adventure story suitable for a TIGER and learns that you should be careful about what you wish for when the story becomes too scary.

    When a little girl starts to write a story about her kitten playing with yarn, he doesn't like it one bit. He wants a story for his alter-ego TIGER--one that has pep and pizzazz--so the girl creates an adventure that the kitten jumps into. Darkness surrounds him (No light, no problem! says the kitten), venomous vipers drop from the trees (Snakes? I've got this), hungry hyenas circle the tiger--and suddenly the kitten begins to wonder if there can be such a thing as too much adventure. As the story gets scarier and scarier, he realizes that what one wants and what one needs are sometimes two different things. This time, he needs a quieter story.

    A colorful and inventive picture book about a creative girl and her kitten.
