What if he doesn't make any new friends? Just in case, Splat decides to bring along his pet mouse, Seymour, and hides him in his lunchbox. The teacher, Mrs. Wimpydimple, introduces Splat to the class and he soon starts learning all his important cat lessons. But when Seymour escapes and the cats do what cats do (they chase mice!), Splat's worried again. Maybe now he'll lose all his friends, old and new! Just in time, wise Mrs. Wimpydimple takes charge and teaches everyone an important new lesson. Maybe Cat School is going to be okay after all!

Whether he's starting school, rehearsing for a play, or trick-or-treating, Splat's nerves sometimes get the better of him. So what does he do? He relies on the support of his trusty companion, Seymour. Seymour may be small (he's a mouse, after all), but he's the biggest friend Splat could ask for. Together this adorable duo reminds readers, and each other, that kindness, encouragement, and laughter go a long way.Available in both picture book and beginning reader formats, this series captivates kids with pop-off-the-page illustrations, lively characters, and relatable humor.
