The hungry cat eats one fish, two potatoes, three tomatoes, four fried eggs ...and after finishing off ten watermelons it, not surprisingly, feels very sick. So up come the ten watermelons, nine puddings, eight pies, seven cakes, et cetera! Now the hungry cat is hungry again and off it goes after a mouse. Watch the cat grow bigger and fatter with each dish it eats and then reduce in size again as the food comes up out of its mouth again. Phyllis King is the author of two volumes of poetry and the Walker Read and Wonder non-fiction picture book "Apple Green, Runner Bean", which she also illustrated.
