Book Guide

This enchanting book contains a selection of the very best of James Herriot's stories about cats.  Read about Buster, the kitten which arrived on Christmas Day; Alfred, the sweetshop cat, and little Emily who lived with the gentleman tramp.  Happiness and heartbreak walk paw by paw through the book, especially in the stories about the two stray cats which took up residence in the Herriots' log shed.

With wonderful colour illustrations by Lesley Holmes, this book will be the perfect present fro all those who both love cats and have enjoyed the stories of the famous Yorkshire vet for many years.
