Summary

Templeton the cat doesn’t like his parents telling him to clean up, and he really doesn’t like when his brothers steal his toys. So, he makes a wish on a magic diamond, and his family disappears!

Critics Review

Pizzoli’s use of four-color art provides an airy, uncluttered vision for his story that will definitely attract children. The simple yet exciting text drives the story forward and will make it a popular choice at storytimes - School Library Journal

The illustrations, done in a graphic, flat-color style with simple linework, recall the cheerful stylings of Ed Emberley and Roger Hargreaves. While Pizzoli uses the computer to arrange his compositions, he takes extra care to hand print the pieces. Done in a three-color printing, the silk screen offers a toothiness to the page, giving fruit, animal and emotions more substance. - Kirkus Reviews
