Mrs. Newberry has used her own little girl, Felicia Noelle, and her cat T-Bone—so named because he once devoured a valuable steak—as models for this delightful story about an impressive looking cat who acts as a baby-sitter.

T-Bone's responsible assignment, his regrettable excursions into mischief, and the dire results of separating baby from sitter are excellent subjects for this brilliant artist. The twenty-five charcoal drawings in two colors will delight cat-lovers, baby-lovers, Newberry-lovers, and all who appreciate quality of art and craftsmanship.
