Princess Puffybottom the Cat is the ruler of her household... until the very unwelcome Darryl the Dog comes along. This immediately shot to the top of the list of my favorite picture books. Start with the brilliant title, move on to the stylish illustrations, and come to a story which is about a cat but is immediately recognizable to anyone who has struggled with change. Hilarious and heartfelt, this story incorporates diversity in a seamless, delightful way. This book would also make a fun companion to more straightforward books for kids about welcoming a new sibling into the family. Recommended By Christine R., Powells.com
