An all-new series from New York Times Bestselling author, Jim Benton!
From New York Times bestselling author Jim Benton, meet Catwad! He's blue, he's a bit of a grouch, and his best friend is a dim-witted cat named Blurmp who can see the bright side of anything. From pizza and computers, to love and happiness, this crabby tabby has a funny take on just about everything, and he's not afraid to share it. This collection of short comic stories will make even the grumpiest of grouches crack up and is not to be missed!
Jim Benton is not a middle-school girl, but do not hold that against him. He has managed to make a living out of being funny, anyway. He is the creator of many licensed properties, some for big kids, some for little kids, and some for grown-ups who, frankly, are probably behaving like little kids. You may already know his properties: It’s Happy Bunny™ or Just Jimmy™, and you are about to get to know Dear Dumb Diary. He’s created a kids’ TV series, designed clothing, and written books. Jim Benton lives in Michigan with his spectacular wife and kids. They do not have a dog, and they especially do not have a vengeful beagle. Dear Dumb Diary is his first series for Scholastic.
