Description: Cats From AwayPeter Parnall Parnall's Maine farm has plenty of cats....most of them from 'away'....rescued either from alleys, shelters, a trap.....or what I call 'walk-ins' lured by the warmth of a fire or the shelter of his barn. Some are solitary wanderers, but others are social with other cats or a parrot, dog, orphaned lambs. The nine cats 'profiled' here have a wide variety of backgrounds and personalities....all shown with Parnall's lovely pencil drawings with touches of subtle color. His text shares their histories and places in the hierarchy of the farm. It's a beautiful book and a treat for all cat lovers! Parnall is a 3-time Caldecott Award winner. Illustrations on every page, unpaginated (32), 10.25" x 8.25", New York: Macmillan, 1989 (1st printing). Hardcover quarter-bound with blue cloth over grey paper-covered boards, and gilt titling on spine. Colored endpapers. Dust jacket with price corner intact ($13.95). Condition: As New.
