"In this nearly wordless alphabet book, a little red cat runs away and gets caught up in a wild chase that goes everywhere from A to Z and back home again"--

"Dogs chase cats. Everyone knows this, especially cats. When Dog wants to chase Cat, he politely asks, 'Are you a cat?' To outrun and outsmart Dog, Cat pretends to be other animals that dogs wouldn't ordinarily want to chase. It's a masterful plan indeed. But when an unexpected creature walks by, it's impossible for Cat to play pretend for much longer."--Amazon.
