Having both read the book and watched the DVD I find this story a delightful one.

Jessie - a young child with all the patience and reasoning of any toddler decides she wants a cat. Her parents say no. So as any young child would she decides to work on them.

Dressing as a cat, acting and eating as only a cat would she keeps going. The deciding factor in her getting the cat is when she is yowling outside.

They go buy a cat, knock on her door and out pops Jessie dressed in a dog suit.

You never can please children, and in this age of want and not need this is a funny story by Tony Ross, who also produces another good story called *I want my potty*

The pictures in the book are the same as in the DVD so having both is a nice idea for kids, we often read the book and they ask for the dvd being able to connect them.

Worth a read and you can buy this and many others by the same author from most good bookshops for £5.99.
