Book Reviews of The Last Little Cat
Book Review: A Gentle Story of Love and Acceptance
Summary: 5 Stars
I was given this book as a gift when I was six years old, and it promptly became one of my favorites. It is the reassuring and gently told story of a barn kitten, the runt of the litter, who accidentally becomes separated from the mother cat and the rest of its littermates. Negotiating the often frightening world by itself, the last little cat encounters cold, hunger, fear, and loneliness in its quest to find a home. In the satisfying ending, the last little cat not only finds a home, but also acceptance and love.
At 66 pages of mostly text, peppered with appealing illustrations by Jim McMullan, this book is most suitable as a read-aloud for an older preschooler or for a beginning independent reader. Meindert DeJong won the 1954 Newberry Award for the better known, and also excellent book, The Wheel on the School.
