Sentimental and touching

I had read an excerpt from "Roadcat" in a magazine and at the end the source was given. I am an animal lover to the core, and I knew I had to have the book. It was worth the purchase just for that story alone!! All the tales are not about animals (and I guess that might have been a bit of a disappointment), but it is a lovely quiet book to enjoy in restful sentimental moments. The stories are about animals, people, places, events, etc., and the telling is easy to read and very pleasant. I definitely recommend it.
