The Bestest Christmas Gift Guide #28 – There Are Cats…

…in this book.

And they are of the very best seriously sensible, naughty, purr-ey, hidey sort.

I bought this book on a whim – at £2.45 it was hardly going to break the bank, and seemed like a good stocking filler.

When it arrived, I flipped through it, like you do. And despite being all alone in an empty house, I actually laughed out loud. Not smiling with a huffey sort of noise, not an amused “hmmm!” but a real, genuine burst-out-of-the-middle-of-my-chest laugh.

I ADORE this book!

It’s such a quirky little tale, and written in such an endearing manner that I can’t help thinking it’s an overlooked classic.

Do what I did – splash out on the couple of squids next time you’re on Amazon. Or hunt it down from your library. If you like cats you will LOVE this book, I promise.

Oh, and, um, your children will like it too…
