Bookroo's summary

Splat the Cat faces his first day of school with trepidation, fearing he won't make friends. To ease his anxiety, he secretly brings his pet mouse, Seymour, hidden in his lunchbox. Chaos ensues when Seymour escapes, and the classroom erupts into a frenzy of chasing cats. As Splat worries about losing friends, Mrs. Wimpydimple steps in with a lesson that could change everything. Will Splat find acceptance and friendship in this unexpected turn of events? Discover how a little mouse and a wise teacher might just make Cat School a place to belong.

From the publisher

It’s Splat’s first day of school and he’s worried. What if he doesn’t make any new friends? Just in case, Splat decides to bring along his pet mouse, Seymour, and hides him in his lunchbox. The teacher, Mrs. Wimpydimple, introduces Splat to the class and he soon starts learning all his important cat lessons. But when Seymour escapes and the cats do what cats do (they chase mice!), Splat’s worried again. Maybe now he’ll lose all his friends, old and new! Just in time, wise Mrs. Wimpydimple takes charge and teaches everyone an important new lesson. Maybe Cat School is going to be okay after all!
