K-Gr 3--During a storm, a gray cat seeks shelter in a hotel, where Mr. Foster, the manager, decides to let him stay until the sky clears. The cat, however, plans to make the place his permanent home and succeeds in endearing himself to the rest of the staff. Although Mr. Foster regularly announces that the cat has got to go when the rain stops, the Vancouver weather offers one rainy day after another. By the time the feline tangles with a raccoon that is frightening a guest, Mr. Foster's affection for him is clear. A trip to the vet results in the cat's official name: Got to Go. Nugent's watercolors bring both animal and setting, the historic Sylvia Hotel, to life. Interesting use of large and small illustrations and various type sizes provides additional visual interest. Got to Go will win listeners and readers as surely as he convinced Mr. Foster to let him stay.
