Mr. Putter & Tabby Run the Race

By Cynthia Rylant and Arthur Howard

“Gently humorous and with underlying messages of friendship and sharing, this is a good addition to the series.”—School Library Journal
 
Mrs. Teaberry has persuaded Mr. Putter to sign up for the seniors’ marathon. First prize is golf clubs, but second prize is…a train set!
 
Mr. Putter really wants that train set. Never mind that he can’t even touch his toes. Somehow, he has got to find a way to place second. But now, someone else is running the race—with four legs…
 
“Winsome and warmhearted, these books could become instant favorites.”—Publishers Weekly

[Leon Pang · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

[cheryl_in_cc_nv · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Not sure why Rylant made this be a marathon. Otherwise, fun story, as usual. I do love how Mr. Putter is supportive of his friend's efforts to stay adventurous, even though he (like me) is usually content to live quietly, eat muffins, and enjoy memories. Mrs. Teaberry is a force of nature, though. I wish she were my neighbor!
