Summary: When Nick decides to teach his cats to read, Verne is very much interested, especially in books about mice and fish, but Stevenson wants nothing to do with the project--or does he?

Review: A good book for a read aloud with a class or in a storytime. This is a story about a couple of reluctant readers. One of the cats finally decides to give it a try and realizes how much fun there is to be had reading and acting out the stories. But the other cat is not interested. One day the cat’s owner looks under his bed finds all kinds of drawings of ships and pirates. He realizes they just hadn’t read the kind of book his reluctant reader cat liked – stories with pirates and treasures. Once they go to the library and find all kinds of books to match what he likes they all enjoy reading together.
