Hardcover
(Harper & Row March 15, 1964)
"Once there was a house by the edge of a woods. The woods were deep and large and dark, filled with untrimmed plants and untamed animals, all moving freely. The house was snug and small and bright, with straight, square walls and hard, tight locks. Inside the house was a grandfather clock that called the tune , a grandfather who obeyed the clock, and a grandson named Will who obeyed his grandfather. There seemed to be as many rules in the house as the animals in the woods. And the firmest rule was: Don't go into the woods. The woods are strange, and people get lost in strange places. Then Tom Kitten came to live with them. Now a cat is a cat, and even in a house like Grandfather's it will find a chance to obey its own rules. Tom wanted to see the woods for himself and when the chance came, he taugh his friends a new way of looking at things. This lively and amusing tale will delight any child who loves a good story, and the imaginative pictures add a special charm of their own." This is taken from the dust jaket of this book.
