daria September 4, 2019 at 1:20 pm I think you are combining two books here – the Footstool cat who is afraid of flying is definitely Humpty Dumpty’s Holiday Stories (1973): https://www.amazon.com/DUMPTYS-HOLIDAY-STORIES-illustrated-Oechsli/dp/B001BV7C3A I loved it too as a kid and still have my copy. Not sure about the “stehcheroo!” part, tho… lol Reply ↓
