Book Review: Delightful story about a cat and her human family
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a delightful story based upon real events of a cat and a baby that survive a flood in the Netherlands. The cat starts out leading the carefree single life, but changes in the human family at home forces a change in lifestyle as the cat moves from sleeping in a warm bed to sleeping in the windmill. During particularly stormy weather, a dike holding back sea water breaks and the whole town is flooded. The cat saves the life of the family's new baby, and later acquires the baby's cradle for a bed after the child grows older. The story is enjoyable for even mature readers.
