Those Darn Squirrels and the Cat Next Door

All is calm in old man Fookwire s yard until new neighbors Little Old Lady Hu and her cat, Muffins move in next door. Muffins is one mean dude! He terrorizes the birds, interrupts Fookwire s painting, and ties the squirrels tails together. Fookwire is upset, but not nearly as upset as the squirrels, who devise an ingenious plan to stop Muffins cold. In this hilarious follow-up to Those Darn Squirrels!, the tongue-in-cheek text is perfectly complemented by the quirky, inventive illustrations.
