The Amazing Hamweenie by Patty Bowman
4.0

Age: Preschool-1st grade
Animal: Cat

If I were to write a book, it would be this one. Another wry humored book where the words conflict with the illustrations in a very funny way, similar to John Klassen.

The amazing Hamweenie wants to be so much more, live so much more than his painfully pampered life. Like all cats, he is unimpressed by the efforts of his human, waiting for the day when he can escape his agonizing abuse. Not good for read alouds but absolutely perfect for one-on-one where the text is sparse but each picture lends forth observations and investigations by reader and listener alike.
