Genius

Read beautifully, the story is entrancing and rhythmic. It provides an explanation through fantasy and in doing so, makes my heart joyfully with the opportunity of sharing it.

Cat independence

If you could sum up The Cat That Walked by Himself in three words, what would they be?

I now understand how cats developed their independent streak. Very clever story.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
