Secretive Cats

Karen Wallace has penned a wonderful little story about a girl who really wants a cat. Unfortunately her parents live where cats are not allowed, so they decide to move. Sarah's new cat is named Tabby and she belonged to the people who lived in the house before they did. (One wonders why the last owners left her there, but no explanation is given.) Sarah learns how to look after her new cat and they put a cat flap on the back door so Tabby can go outside. This books encourages good care and regular visits to the vet for checkups. In the summer Sarah and Tabby play out in the yard. Sometimes the cat liked to go play with her friends too (that is how the book explains it) and soon Tabby was getting a bit fatter. On Sarah's birthday, her mom makes her a special birthday cake in the shape of a cat (these parents are super nice, let me tell ya!) and her father gives her a necklace with a cat on it. Sarah wants to show Tabby her new necklace, but can't find her. They search everywhere and Sarah is very upset. Her father rushes in and says: "Follow me! I have a surprise for you." Sarah sees that the bottom drawer is open and sees a cat's tail. When she opens the drawer, she sees two tiny kittens curled up. As she says: They were the most purr-r-fect presents ever. And I agree. Really cute book with a wonderful story for kids who are just starting to read.
