"A cute, short book about a man who is very lonely and decides to get a cat to keep him company. My favorite thing about reading this book with my students is when one said, "Maybe Mr. Putter should just get married!" They were pretty sure that was the moral of the story. "

" I love Mr. Putter and Tabby. Probably my favorite easy reader series. In this one Mr. Putter tries to repay the kindness of his neighbor Mrs. Teaberry by helping with a meeting of her knitting club. Imagine yarn, a fruity hat, cat, dog--and mayhem! "

" This story is about an old man and his cat. It was very cute and shows how everyone needs a companion. Intended for younger audiences. I would use it for K-2. "

" Cynthia Rylant manages to pack so much affection and humor into the few words allowed in an easy reader. Howard, the illustrator, conveys Tabby's many moods with just a twitch of a whisker or the slightest kink in a tail. My 6 and 8-year-old nephews love this series, as do I. "
