An old lady with magical abilities uses a spell in an effort to help a cat, dog, and mouse make their proper sounds. Instead, their noises get mixed up and the result is mayhem. The book uses rhyme to present the animal-sound confusion. The situation begins with the familiar cat, dog, and mouse, then turns their sounds upside down. Mixed-media illustrations accompany the effects of the old lady's magic.
