In the book, Bathe the Cat, clean-up time turns topsy-turvy when an interracial family鈥檚 mischievous cat jumbles up their to-do list. With a visit from Grandma impending, the story opens with one of two brown-skinned fathers delegating tasks: 鈥淒ad will mow the lawn,/ and Sarah, sweep the mat./ Bobby, rock the baby,/ and I鈥檒l bathe the cat.鈥� The tasks are spelled out in magnetic letters on the fridge, just above a child鈥檚 hand-drawn family portrait.
