Cat Getting Out of a Bag and Other Observations

By: Jeffrey Brown

Hands down, most genius book I've ever read. It's a short book comprised of mostly comic-style cartoons about a kitty named Misty. They're not actual comics, however; there is usually no dialogue and Misty the cat is often the sole character in the "scenes." The book conveys everything weird that a typical housecat does, including:

-Cat attacking a pen while it is being used to write something.
-Cat running around the house with a crooked tail and an arched back while making a "mrooorwrwr!" noise.
-Cat asking to go outside, only to immediately turn around and ask to come back in.
-Cat sleeping for a long period of time, waking up and speed-cleaning itself in one spot on its body, and falling asleep again instantly.

Anyway, it's hilarious...that is, if you've ever lived with a cat. Every single cartoon I read made me keel over with laughter.
