The Catfish Club by Sudipta Bardhan-Quallen - OPTIONAL

Bardhan-Quallen, Sudipta The Catfish Club (Purrmaids #2), 84 pages.  CHAPTER BOOK.  Random House, 2017.  $5.  Content:G

The Purrmaids are excited to visit the refurbished Kittentail Cove Museum, especially after Ms. Harbor asks each class member to create art for their homework.  Their plans are interrupted when three other class members are also at the museum with the same idea.  Unless the six purrmaids get along, none of them will have anything to show their teacher tomorrow.

Get ready to wade through a whole bunch of cat puns (Vincent Fang Gogh, Catisse).  The message about cooperation adds weight to a book that would otherwise just be silly.
