Once upon a time there was a princess and eight pampered cats . There was also a mouse and a bat, who lived downstairs in the dark, drafty cellar. And the mouse wanted the same things at the cats: perfumed pillows, hot baths, and so much more. So he and the bat decide to bell the cats. Will they succeed?
This book does a great job in solving the Aesop fable ( which is featured at the beginning of book for not familiar with it) and providing a great lesson in kindness and determination. The artwork is really great too, and so is the book's website( http://butwhowillbellthecats.com/), which features games, information on fables, crafts ( such as making your own dollhouse diorama), and more.
