The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers

By: Lilian Jackson Braun

Narrated by: George Guidall

Length: 3 hrs and 16 mins

Publisher's summary

Times are changing in Pickax, and it all makes for some newsworthy notes for the "Qwill Pen". A new senior center is in the works, and a frisky production of Cats is set to delight Moose County residents, human and feline alike. Polly Duncan is off to Paris, momentarily leaving Qwill without a companion for his apple-barn concerts, and The Librarians Who Lunch are getting read to put on a show of their spectacular Art Hats to help unite Pickax with its Lockmaster County neighbors.

Not to mention the conversation of the late Nathan Ledfield's mansion into a charitable museum! Mr. Ledfield's treasures are being sold off to benefit needy children, and the town is abuzz with excitement - that is, until a mysterious death from a bee sting leaves everyone but Cool Koko in a state of confusion.

Is it because he has 60 whiskers as Qwill suspects, or because Koko knows that the mysterious death was no accident?

not one of Braun's best

struggled to get through it. No real plot, and parts sounded like they were just filling a book with word for Words sake.

As usual easy fun to listem

Always great to listen about Koko, Yumyu, Quilleran, their life, escapades while living in their small town.

Awesome!

Great book! I definitely recommend listening to this book and all the others in the series, they are all well written and easy listening.

Not one of the best

What did you like best about The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers? What did you like least?

I like the narration of the book. I have liked listening to George Guidall for a long time now with the way he can do the voices of the characters and make me laugh. What I like least about the book is that it didnt grasp my attention as many of the other books in the series has.

Has The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers turned you off from other books in this genre?

The book has turned me off. I still enjoy the series in general.

Which character – as performed by George Guidall – was your favorite?

Qwilleran has always been my favorite character.

Could you see The Cat Who Had 60 Whiskers being made into a movie or a TV series? Who should the stars be?

No I cannot see this book as a movie again because it didnt grab my attention immediately as the rest of the books in this series have in the past. I did listen to the entire book but the story just didnt grab a hold of me.

Excellent

Wonderful story and wonderful narrator! I would love to hear all of them. Hope to acquire more in due time.

Great Listen

Kept your interest and moved right along. If you like mysteries, cats and small towns along with their people
you will enjoy this book.

Delightful read!

Lillian Jackson Braun’s writing style is so whimsical—I love it! The Midwest color is apparent and very funny.

Great Improvement Narration & Story Line

Great narration & presentation of story. This one ends a little bit sadder with the burning of the barn, and Polly’s departure to Paris. The novel after this is not available for me to read, purchase only which is fine. Now it wants me to know what happen next. Many thanks to the writer who will actually never see this but thank you for making it available for us to read.
