What a team; I've loved work by both Bauer and Hyman. Art did not disappoint, but maybe I'm getting too jaded for stories from the pet's point of view. Or maybe this story is just too darn short to satisfy me. I do recommend it for interested readers who haven't grown as cynical as I; I'm sure it's the favorite of some fans of ghosts and of cats and of adoption.
It did work for my Halloween read. ;)

I didn't really like the book i read it in 2 days. This book tells a story of a cat that is a show. The owner of the cat was in a old folks home and passed away. The story made no sense to me.
