The Cat Who Got Carried Away

One more time . . . the Gaskitts! In Allan Ahlberg’s third madcap episode about this resourceful family, Horace the cat takes center stage.


In this latest Gaskitts story from comedic master Allan Ahlberg, Gus and Gloria have a lot of running to do. Mr. Gaskitt spends most of his time
vacuuming, Mrs. Gaskitt hardly ever gets out of bed, and Horace - poor Horace - ends up in a pet shop. Tune in for answers to such questions as: Who is that man whizzing by with a baby carriage? Will Horace ever get a role in THE GREAT ESCAPE? And why does Mrs. Gaskitt crave egg and pineapple sandwiches? With Katharine McEwen’s funny illustrations and a few maps and timetables to help them along, early chapter book readers will chuckle their way through this silly story of the ever-surprising Gaskitt family.
