Newbery Medal-winning author Beverly Cleary charms readers with yet another lovable character-Socks, a jealous cat who must learn to share his owners with their new baby.*
Socks is one happy cat. He lives the good life with his affectionate owners, Mr. and Mrs. Bricker. Ever since the day they saved him from a life spent in a mailbox drop slot, Socks has been the center of their world. And he always has everything he needs-tasty kitty treats and all the lap room he could want!
But when a new baby arrives, suddenly the Brickers have less and less time for Socks. Little Charles William is the one getting all the attention. Socks feels left out-and to show it, he starts getting into all sorts of trouble! What will it take to make Socks realize just how much the Brickers care about him?
