Review by Horn Book Review

This is a cat" or "This is not a cat," a mouse teacher explains to her mouse students as she points to corresponding pictures. Meanwhile, who is sneaking through the classroom window? Using almost only the words in his title, LaRochelle tells what amounts to a fantastic joke whose punch line is finessed by Wohnoutka's gouache illustrations showing a flamboyantly freaked-out cast.
