I loved this book as a kid when I would check it out at my hometown library. It used to get to me emotionally back then, and it still holds that power now as it traces the life of a cat named Tiger. There is some human-imposed silliness, like a cat marriage, but overall it's a beautiful book that is interesting because many of the illustrations are from a cat's point of view. I found that fascinating as a kid, and it still strikes me as innovative now.

A sweet, sentimental story of the life of a cat and the lady who loved it. This is primarily a picture book with very little text. Lovely soft illustrations.
