I LOVE all the James Herriot books and was thrilled to be able to share one of the stories with my son. Beautiful watercolor illustrations complement the text. I also recommend "Moses the Kitten."

When a little girl finds a stray cat and leaves him with the country vet, Herriot and his wife fall in love with him and name him Oscar. But the cat keeps sneaking away, and they don't know why--until he begins turning up at social events all over the village. It seems Oscar is just a cat who likes to visit: a cat-about-town. Color illustrations.

Great Gift copy!
