Little Susie Bipp has lots of money.
She gets everything she wants. She lives in the town of Inskip. To
keep herself occupied she has dolls, and a swing made from an old
tire. Susie has marbles, games and lots of other shiny things. She
has one bed for leaping and one just for sleeping. Little Susie Bipp
even has a few pets. She has goldfish, a goat, a red duck, a squirrel
that wears pearls and a little green mouse. Even with all of that,
little Susie wants more.
You see, Susie has a neighbor named
Mrs. Payne. Now here is where the story gets real interesting, Mrs.
Payne has a cat named Simon. He is a sweet little kitty who loves
Mrs. Payne. Simon is an ordinary cat who has curly whiskers and long
black hair. He purrs and loves to look up at the sky and listen to
the birds sing. One day, on her way home from school, Susie spots
Simon chasing her little green mouse.
Now, Susie doesn't have a cute little
kitty cat. Simon soon becomes her newest obsession. Susie tries
everything to make Simon her own. Money, disguises and tricks don't
seem to work. How will Susie ever make Simon her own? Does Susie have
the right to snatch that cat that doesn't belong to her? You'll have
to read this hilarious adventure to see.
Buttram has done an excellent job of
creating a story of a spoiled little girl who wants everything in
sight. Kids aged 5-9 will be tickled at Susie's efforts to snatch
that cat. Children will root for Simon in the hopes that he doesn't
fall pray to this spoiled little girls tricks. Parents and teachers
will be able to open up dialogue with young readers in regards to
wanting things they don't need along with leaving other peoples
belongings alone. Colorful digital illustrations will have kids
laughing at the characters and wondering if they will ever get a good
look at Susie. The sing song rhyme make this story a really fun read
for kids.
