A raucous, rhyming tale that will have children (and adults) in fits of laughter!

　　Cat is sitting on his favourite mat, when who should come along but Rat with a very nice hat? Cat wants Rat's hat and will stop at NOTHING to get it. But when Bat arrives wearing a fancy cravat, well, what could be better than that? Chaos ensues as both Cat and Rat decide they MUST have Bat's fancy cravat for themselves!

　　From Em Lynas and Matt Hunt comes this hilarious, read-aloud picture book, bursting with comic capers and animal antics.

　　With a hilarious, tongue-twister text, slapstick humour, bright neon artwork and colourful, comic characters.

　　Perfect for fans of Oi Frog!

　　Every Nosy Crow paperback picture book comes with a free 'Stories Aloud' audio recording - just scan the QR code and listen along!

　　"A stylish, funny picture book in zinging colours, with cleverly constructed rhyming text, limited vocabulary and action-packed pictures. A cat and a rat fight over a hat. A bat gets it. Great for those learning to read." - Nicolette Jones, The Sunday Times

　　"The text's pounding rhyme scheme will be picked up by toddlers in no time, and the knockabout humour, which owes something to Tom and Jerry cartoons, is a hoot." - James Lovegrove, Financial Times
