The cartoon Tom and Jerry are at least 50 years old and what was funny then, isn’t so funny now. The characters got away with a lot that we laughed at, but nowadays those same actions will get you in trouble. This is called an interactive book because Tom appears to be speaking to the reader(s). Not so fun for the reader with a class of 25 kiddos. At the end, Jerry lures Tom to come closer and closer and then burps loudly in his ear. Kids don’t even know if they can laugh at this anymore. Not everything old is fondly remembered.
