Dear Mrs. LaRue: LaRue Across America
Dear Mrs. LaRue: LaRue Across America
Bestselling, award-winning author/illustrator Mark Teague makes readers laugh aloud when La Rue goes on vacation with Mrs. Hibbins's cats! Ike's plans for a peaceful cruise with Mrs. La Rue are thwarted when their neighbor, Mrs. Hibbins, falls suddenly ill from heat stroke. Mrs. La Rue suggests that she and Ike care for her cats while Mrs. Hibbins is in the hospital, inviting them along on the cruise. But cats aren't allowed, and Mrs. La Rue decides to take them all on a week's vacation of road-tripping. Ike begs and begs for bus fare in his letters to Mrs. Hibbins, but why does she not respond? As they drive farther and farther from the coast, his wistful dreams of a cruise fade into desperation over the desert horizon. Ike complains he is low on bones, and Mrs. La Rue is almost out of patience. It now seems that nothing short of an empty gas tank can bring this horror show of a road trip to a halting stop. But then what?Join Mark Teague on this wonderful romp of a road trip across America's immediately recognizable tourist destinations. Teague masterfully drives us to the story's very satisfying ending through his hilarious text and slyly smart paintings. We are left with one profound question: Can cats and dogs really be friends?!.
