Books by Jan Thomas

Chicken's cow visitors try to jump, dance, and wiggle on his couch, which is much too tiny for such exuberant activities.

This "rollicking" picture book is "laugh-out-loud" fun for new readers ( Publishers Weekly, starred review). What will Fat Cat sit on? The pig? (Oink!) The chicken? (Cluck!) How about the dog? (Grrrr.) Everyone in this bumbling animal gang—understandably—hopes the victim will be someone else! Leave it to Mouse to come up with a brilliant solution that satisfies everyone, even Fat Cat himself. Filled with hilarious asides and an interactive question-answer format, this irreverent picture book will delight little ones who love to shout "NO!" "Fun to read aloud, it would also make an effective early reader for preschoolers."— The New York Times Book Review "A cat that puts Garfield to shame...a lot of laughs. This is a book that toddlers and new readers will reach for again and again."— Kirkus Reviews
