When a boy is FINALLY allowed to get a cat, he has no doubts about which one to bring home from the shelter. But Max the cat isn't quite what the family expected. He shuns the toy mouse, couldn't care less about the hand-knitted sweater, and spends most of his time facing the wall. One by one, the family gives up on Max, but the boy loves his negative cat so much, he'll do anything to keep him. Even the thing he dreads most- practicing his reading. Which, as it turns out, makes everything positive!. Ages 4-8. Nancy Paulsen Books. Accelerated Reader AR LG 2.2 0.5 513749. 20211223. Cats Juvenile fiction. Animal behavior Juvenile fiction.
