From the publisher

The Geisel Award-winning creators of See the Cat and See the Dog return for a comical new spoof on primers–and this time the cat, the dog, and the book are grappling with some curious things they can’t see. See the wind blow the leaves.See the wind blow the leaves off the page.See the wind blow the dog off the page. It’s not easy to enjoy a picnic when you have unseeable interlopers to contend with! In a new trio of stories for beginning readers, the affable Max the dog and mischievous Baby Cakes the cat encounter a scare-happy ghost who has a run-in with a mirror, the wind at its blustery best, and a teeny-tiny fairy with a wayward wand who may have met her match. With playfully meta flair, author David LaRochelle and illustrator Mike Wohnoutka bring back their lovable characters for an amusing foray into things that go “Boo!,” “Whoosh!,” and “Hey! . . . Will you let me back into the book?”
