- Abstract
- en_US This is a delightfully illustrated oversize pamphlet of twelve pages. It measures 7½ by almost 14. Mrs. Tiger Cat has to take care of her kittens before she goes out to find them some catnip. She hears counting, and it is Mr. Sly Fox counting his ninety-ninth and hundredth tricks for eluding pursuers. Even before the hounds appear, the cat asserts that her one trick might be better than his hundred. The centerfold may have the strongest illustration: the dogs attack the worried fox, while the cat looks on from its perch. When she gets back home afterwards, the kittens are disappointed that she has found so little catnip. She takes them by the hands and brings them to the elm tree to teach them one good trick. The coloring seems to be heavy on yellows.
