Kim had a cat named Geraldine and seven kittens.
\nOne kitten was striped like a tiny tiger. One was round,
\nand soft, and white as a snowball. Two were black as a
\nmidnight sky, and three had black and white polka-dots
\nall over.<\/p>\n

Kim thought that having seven kittens was fun. Kim’s
\nmother and father did not agree.<\/em><\/p>\n

So Kim is sent out to give away six of the kittens. And he succeeds. There is only one complication: everyone who takes a kitten thanks Kim by giving him a different pet in exchange. This is a great book to read with early readers and non-readers, due to the subtle humor and repeated rebuses (pictures that take the place of words).<\/p>\n
