All kittens love to play! Naturalistic illustrations rendered in vivid colors are presented with a charming little story about Bonnie, a kitten who slips out of bed early one morning and has an adventure as she encounters the many critters who live in the backyard. The story will appeal especially to preschool boys and girls, because Bonnie's innocent curiosity and delight in nature are very much like the reactions of most small children. Bonnie seeks out a playmate among bees, ducklings, and fish in a nearby pond. Before long, she finds herself in trouble—until Mom comes to the rescue!
