Pack Rat's Lost and Found

Every night, by the light of the moon, Pack Rat whispers to the glittering stars, "Star bright, star light, first star I see tonight, wish I may, wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight. I wish I might find a treasure tonight!" When Pack Rat's wish comes true and he finds a glittering, gorgeous star, he is ecstatic and takes it back to his desert palace. But oh no, Mrs. Binder is missing one earring-a very special glittering gold star, a gift from her husband. Cat helps in the search and then recruits the desert birds. "Meow, meow, have you seen a glittering star?" Roadrunner races here and there spreading the word. The doves coo and call a crowd. Cactus Wren twitters. Gila Woodpecker tat-a-tat-tats and knocks on Owl's door. Red-Tailed Hawk squawks, "I know the rat who stole the star. Pack Rat dragged it to his nest, and now he's taking his daily beauty rest." Now Cat must concoct the purrfect plan, with the help of his desert backyard critters, to retrieve the glittering gold star.
