Negative Cat

<b>Two-time Caldecott winner Sophie Blackall spins a winning tale about Max a feline whose behavior doesn't win any raves except from the boy who believes in him and finds a way to turn a negative into a positive.</b><br><br>When a boy is FINALLY allowed to get a cat he has no doubts about which one to bring home from the shelter. But Max the cat isn&#146;t quite what the family expected. He shuns the toy mouse couldn&#146;t care less about the hand-knitted sweater and spends most of his time facing the wall. One by one the family gives up on Max but the boy loves his negative cat so much he&#146;ll do anything to keep him. Even the thing he dreads most: practicing his reading. Which as it turns out makes everything positive!<br>
