Description
Fish and birds and lizards and socks...is there anything Max won't attack? Watch your ankles and find out in this clever, rhyming picture book about a very naughty kitty cat.
Max is a cat. He attacks. From socks to strings to many a fish, attacking, for Max, is most de-lish. But how many of these things can he actually catch? Well, let's just say it's no even match.
