| Publisher Description: This charming chapter book features the beloved characters from Newbery Honor Book award-winning author Jacqueline Kelly's young readers' series, Calpurnia Tate, Girl Vet. When Travis finds an abandoned baby squirrel, he brings him home and names him Fluffy. But Mother isn't so sure that Fluffy is such a great family pet--and neither is Thud, the cat. Will Fluffy be able to steer clear of these two and find a home in the Tate household? |
