This is a picture book about a clever kid who learns to embrace their unique qualities on a field trip.

Meow, the main character, is puzzled as to why everyone calls them Meow. They suspect it's because they have cat-like ears on their hat, but their snarky feline friend has other ideas.

Meow's teacher, Ms. Snickety, thinks Meow doesn't listen, but Meow believes they "just listen differently." On a field trip to see wildlife, the teacher gives each child a banana to offer the monkeys, but the monkeys take all the bananas. Meow comes up with a creative solution by using a cannon to launch the bananas into the air, so everyone can have one.

This book celebrates kids who think differently and has a playful, colorful art style that matches the whimsical story.
