This is my PERSONAL diary, and if you are reading this, Bobby Cutright, you are in big trouble!It all started because Gran was afraid to sleep alone and Mama and Daddy decided that I would spend nights with her in her trailer. Gran goes to bed at 7:30 P.M. sharp. (It's not even dark out!) And the TV is for religious programs only. (I can't live without Monsterpiece Theatre!) Not to mention that Gran has cats. Thirteen of them!As if that weren't enough, I've got Sammy Potter following me around, Missy Fowler making my life miserable in school, and hair growing on my arms a mile long. AAAAHHHH! Well, at least I have my diary to keep me from going crazy.

Do you think I'll survive to tell the whole story?Cheryl Ware will have readers rolling on the floor with laughter, as Venola Mae takes on puberty, her grandma's eccentricities, and a trailer full of cats in this hilarious sequel to Flea Circus Summer.Catty-Cornered is Cheryl Ware's second novel about Venola Mae, following Flea Circus Summer. Kirkus Reviews called Venola "a fresh, funny heroine." Publishers Weekly proclaimed, "Straight from page one, readers will take a shining to Venola Mae Cuthright.".
