Winner of the 2011 National Indie Excellence Finalist Award Five-time National Award-Winning Author Peggy Krause writes her children's series to be funny and fast-paced for the children while also including messages of kindness to animals throughout the stories for animal-loving parents who want to instill this important value in their children. "The Scruffy Little Crumb-Grabbers" is the second book in Krause' "Kitty Tales Trilogy" for 7 to 11 year old boys and girls. Spider Man, the cat, ... Yes, that's right, he is a cat named "Spider Man," ... lives with his owner, Marcy. Spider Man acquired his name from Marcy's two little grandchildren, Ruby and Frankie, because their most favorite super hero in the whole world is Spider Man(c). Marcy spoils Spider Man with the nicest cat toys and treats she can find, so he has a very happy life ... until one day when Ruby and Frankie have to move in with Marcy. Whenever the children see Spider Man, they squeal at the top of their lungs and instantly chase him to squeeze the life out of him. Their "loving" hugs cause Spider Man's eyes to bulge out of his head, so he is forced to spend much of his days hiding or running from the children. One day, Ruby and Frankie's mischievous ways get them into a very dangerous situation, and they desperately need Spider Man's help. He is the only one there who can save them. Will Spider Man rise above his dislike for the children and come to their rescue?
