About this title

About the Author:

Syd Hoff has given much pleasure to children everywhere as the author and illustrator of numerous children’s books, including the favorite I Can Read books Sammy the Seal, The Horse in Harry’s Room, and the Danny and the Dinosaur books. Born and raised in New York City, he studied at the National Academy of Design. His cartoons were a regular feature in the New Yorker after he sold his first cartoon to that magazine at the age of eighteen. His work also appeared in many other magazines, including Esquire and the Saturday Evening Post, and in a nationally syndicated daily feature.

From School Library Journal:

Kindergarten-Grade 3-- "Captain Cat joined the army. . . when nobody was looking." And so begins the story of a striped feline who strays onto an army base and steps right into military life. Newly independent readers can easily follow Captain Cat's adventures through the large-print text and the numerous large full-color cartoons filled with picture clues. Hoff has maintained his deft touch with a title that's sure to appeal to youngsters. --Gale W. Sherman, Pocatello Public Library, ID
