Ella's New Hat and Her Terrible Cat — Pamela Grandstaff

Ella has purchased a bright blue hat that she thinks is beautiful, but her bad-tempered, disagreeable cat doesn't like it. No matter what Ella does to improve her new hat, by decorating it with ribbons and buttons, or by inviting ladybugs to have tea upon the brim, her cantankerous cat refuses to approve. When Ella wears her hat anyway and has a great time as a result, her persnickety cat throws a fit and pouts, but everyone else is having too much fun to notice. A humorous reminder that you can't please everyone so you might as well please yourself; anyone who has a persnickety friend or family member will enjoy this funny story.
