A departure from French's previous brightly colored picture books
by a variety of illustrators, this easy-to-read chapter book, first
published in Great Britain in 1995, is part of a series labeled,
"Roaring Good Reads" that are "short, lively stories with
illustrations on every page, for children just started to read by
themselves." Morris the cat has first one problem then another as
he gets stuck in a tree and encounters a fierce dog. The
black-and-white drawings have simple appeal, sketching feline
feelings, antics and accompanying dialogue. Functional for its
purpose, but this original paperback with black-and-white
illustrations will be a tough sell next to standards like Frog and
Toad, Henry and Mudge or Mr. Putter and Tabby. (Easy reader. 6-8)
(Kirkus Reviews)
The third book about Morris, the lovable fat ginger kitten whose
main interest in life is food! A Roaring Good Read for children who
are just able to read on their own. Morris gets chased up the apple
tree by a great big dog. He crawls to the end of a very long
branch...and then gets stuck. He is much too afraid to come down.
His sister, Rose, climbs up the tree to join him, then they are
both stuck. His little brother, Tom, rushes up to join them... then
they are all stuck on the end of the very long, and now very
wobbly, branch. Mother Cat persuades Tom and Rose to climb down.
But she cannot get Morris down, he is much too scared. The only
thing that will persuade Morris to come down is...FOOD! A third
perfect text for beginner readers by this well-known author.
