Reach for this book when you find yourself constantly reminding your child to keep their clothes clean or when a formal event feels stressful for your little ones. It is the perfect story for validating the struggle between a child's natural urge to play and the adult world's expectations of neatness and manners. In this classic tale, Mrs. Tabitha Twitchit attempts to dress her three kittens for a tea party, but their instincts for climbing and exploring quickly lead to a wardrobe disaster and an encounter with some opportunistic ducks. While it touches on themes of obedience and motherly frustration, the story ultimately finds humor in the 'messy reality' of childhood. It offers a gentle way to discuss responsibility and the consequences of mischief without being overly heavy-handed.
