One of a number of titles featuring Jenny Linsky, long out-of-print and recently republished as part of The New York Review Children's Classics series, Jenny Goes to Sea should appeal to young chapter-book readers who like cats, or animal stories. As a confirmed lover of Averill's classic early reader, The Fire Cat, I was delighted to discover the existence of this series, which I somehow missed as a child, and have enjoyed reading it immensely. No kitty will ever eclipse Pickles the Fire Cat in my affections of course, but the winsome Jenny still makes for a charming heroine, and Averill's copious illustrations are a delight! ( )
