Used to being Late!

This book was one of my favorite books as a child. I still have my ragged and worn copy - my mom fixed the binding at least a dozen times. It's the story of two kittens, Edward and Elizabeth, who are always late for school, one morning when they hurry to school, no one is there! They decide to go home because there must not be school today, but is that really true? The illustrations are full of awesome details, like a Charmin toilet paper tube in a mouse's cage, prices on toys in a shop window, names on drawings by students at school, and a policecat ticketing a car in front of a "No Parking Sign". I remember when my mom and I would sit on the couch looking for details we hadn't yet seen. The book also has a subtle way of reinforcing learning to tell time. A great book to read with a small child you know!
