Customer Reviews

Great Book

I love all the Hank books, and this is a great one for the Christmas season. These books are hilarious and more important to the young reader, fun to read. I'd also check the rest of the series. Author of "Hobo Finds A Home" editor "Of A Predatory Heart"

Good for the unexciting drive to work

I am currently listening to The Vampire Cat as I drive back and forth to work and can hardly wait to get back in my car! I read the Hank books as a child growing up in West Texas and now love to imagine the Caprock and dusty plains as I grumble through the fresh hell of the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex morning rush. I got a little sad when Mary Dee Cat lamented leaving her home (where she was "marooned for two long years") and the glorious sunsets and night skies. Hank in all his bravado cracks me up, as do the rest of the characters in this book and the other books (the buzzard father and son team, coyotes Rip & Snort, the fabulous weenie Drover, monosyllabic Slim, and prissy Pete the Barn Cat not to mention crazy Mary Dee). They're old friends I'm glad to read about and listen to again.This book really made me hungry for cheese....

The Case of the Vampire Cat

I'm reading a book named The Case of the Vampire cat.Its a really good book ,beacause it is a mystery.Because it has mystery in it you are wondering what is going to happen next,and when hank gets lost you are wondering if he get out.It is really a good book so I think you should read it.

THAT CAT ALWAYS HAD A SHORT TEMPER.DROVER AND HANK KEPT PESTERING THE CAT. THEN THEY LEFT TO GO FEED THE COWS ON TOP OF A VERY STEEP HILL.HANK WAS MAKING FUN OF A COUPLE OF COYOTE BROTHERS AND THEN SLIM TURNED A HARD LEFT AND HANK FLEW RIGHT OUT OF THE CAR. HE WAS A REALLY IN TROUBLE.THIS WAS A REAL GOOD FOR ALL AGES.
