Cross-country cat
On the way through various rainy-day errands today, I stopped at the
local book shop, where I saw a book called "Cross-Country Cat." This is an illustrated children's book about - wait for it - a cat that skis. (I notice on amazon.com that the same author, Mary Calhoun, has written a series of books, where the same cat takes up other interesting hobbies such as hot-air ballooning, high-wire walking, and sailing.) I don't want to give away the ending of the book, but, well, let's just say that that cat can ski. Oh, I can't stop myself, here's a spoiler: he does pretty well on the downhills. So, if anyone has or knows of a child who could benefit from a book about a cat that skis, then this information may be of use to you. The list price of the book is US$5.95. No, I didn't buy it. I did buy yet another New England trail sampler and a snowmobile trail map, though. Can't have enough maps or trail guides. Lew Lasher Stowe, Vermont and Cambridge, Massachusetts |
