Dr. Meow’s Big Emergency is the first in a series of books which all take place in the friendly Whoops-a-Daisy World. In this exciting adventure, Tom Cat has hurt his leg, and Doctor Meow must help him right away. Doctor Meow and her helpers are good neighbors, and good friends, too!Sam Lloyd’s humorous, brightly colored art is thoroughly kid-friendly, and will appeal to fans of Richard Scarry.Each book will feature a different character, but all of the characters reappear throughout the series, so kids can return to their favorite friends in various books. Stay tuned for the second installment from Whoops-a-Daisy World, Chief Rhino to the Rescue! Publishers WeeklyLloyd (Mr. Pusskins) gets in touch with her inner Richard Scarry for a book that's busy-as-a-bee chipper. Doctor Meow, a female kitty, is chief of staff at Kiss-It-Better Hospital-and talk about a health-care crisis: "There are temperatures to take, heartbeats to listen to, baby bunnies to feed, and look at Monkey-what's he got stuck on his head this time?" Despite all the demands, the animals clearly know they're in good hands with Doctor Meow and her trusty ambulance driver, Woof (whose vehicle gives readers a chance to chime in with "Wee-ooo, wee-ooo"). In fact, the good doctor is even able to heal the social fabric after Tom Cat falls out of a tree (the titular emergency) in pursuit of Mr. Bird. The big, slightly retro pop-off-the-page cartooning makes the book ideal for sharing with a group; the pictures welcome readers with open arms, but pack a surprising dramatic punch, too. The happy prognosis: more titles set in Lloyd's Whoops-a-Daisy World are in the works. Ages 3-6. (Sept.)Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
