Mr. Pants the cat and his two cat sisters, like mischievous siblings everywhere, spend their seemingly endless energy both provoking each other and aggravating their human mom.  In Slacks, Camera, Action!, Mr. Pants has only one day to enter a film contest and his fixation on creating a film encounters continual hiccups.  When it appears he’s run out of time, his mom shows him how to edit and add audio to what he already has filmed and Mr. Pants gets the film submitted just in time!

Slacks, Camera, Action is the second book in the Mr. Pants series.  The colorful pictures and simple text are in the format of a graphic novel with speech bubbles and multiple panels on each page.  The silly story is organized into eight easy-to-read chapters offering young readers a sense of accomplishment and a good option for readers not quite ready for more challenging chapter books
