Mr. Putter and Tabby


I love sweet books for kids. One of our family favorites is the Mr. Putter and Tabby series by Cynthia Rylant. It is a series of stories about an old man and his cat. He picked this cat because it was a little old and hard of hearing just like him.


They have many adventures together from painting the front porch (and having animals run through the wet paint) to flying a toy airplane. They are such sweet stories and I think it is so nice to have a book with an older person as the main character. Older people aren't nearly as respected in our culture as I wish they were, especially as I get older.


They are nice stories that will bring a chuckle out of kids and adults alike.
