Product Description
Mrs. Teaberry announces that she's starting a knitting club, and Mr. Putter is happy to help out. But disaster strikes when Tabby and Zeke want to pitch in, too: Mrs. Fitzwater's sweater completely unravels, and the whole afternoon ends up in quite a tangle.

Ok But Not Great 26 September, 2006 This is our first experience with the Mr. Putter and Tabby series...and I can't say I was all that impressed. As we first encounter him, Mr. Putter admittedly feels he isn't a very good neighbor to Mrs. Teaberry because she's always doing nice things for him (mostly involving yummy treats for him and the cat), and he doesn't really do anything for her (except eat her treats)...so he sets out to do something nice and neighborly for her. What ensues is a rather madcap attempt at "helping" out Mrs. Teaberry with her knitting club meeting.
Amazon lists no age range for this book, though I assume 1-8 or so, with 1-5 being more of a read aloud story and 5-8 being a read alone for beginner readers. The illustrations are cartoonish (which is nice, very vivid colors) and really help the story along for younger listeners and readers. It's really just a nice, short and sweet story that is ideal for a quick bedtime or story carpet session, but not much else. We may try some of the others in this series, but I'm just not in love with it. I'm not likely to buy any of these, nor would they be the first thing I'd recommend. I give it a B, there's nothing wrong with it, its just not all that exciting.

Sensitive Handling Of The Older Folks 30 October, 2007 My grandsons and I love all the Mr Putter books. Ms Ryland does a wonderful job of introducing the lives and foibles of older folks with sensitivity and humor...and there are always wonderful stories that keep everyone entranced. The animals and their owners are true "characters" -we have the whole series!

Another Great Mr. Putter And Tabby Story 04 January, 2007 I absolutely love this series! Rylant's latest book was not a disappointment. It is absolutely charming and adorable. When I found out another book had recently I was very eager to buy it. Of course, I have bought every single Mr. Putter and Tabby book for my three-year-old daughter as well as for my self :) The fact that I am a knitting freak only added to the excitement. I also LOVE cats and Rylant so acurately portrays the behavior of cats through Tabby. It's worth every penny :) Enjoy.

Putter Is So Sweet 09 October, 2006 My son and I love the Mr. Putter books. They are nice stories with some cute situations to give the parents a chuckle. These really keep my son's attnetion (the suggested age is 4-8; my son is younger).
I believe this is the newest of the Putter and Tabby books. It's just as good as the rest.
