We have a patron trying to locate a book we think is from the late
70's or early '80s. It is a chapter book about a family who found a
secret
world. They called one of the brothers in the family (perhaps the
baby)
Pollywog. She also THINKS it may have been made into a TV movie. With such
sketchy information, we really haven't searched any sources...we're hoping
someone out there might recognize it? Thanks!

Listen, kitten,
Get this clear,
This is my chair.
I sit here.
Okay, kitty,
We can share;
When I'm not home,
It's your chair.
Listen cat
How about
If I use it
When you're out?
