A Dickens of a Cat
A Dickens of a Cat: and Other Stories of the Cats We Love
Callie Smith Grant (Editor)
Publisher: Revell
ISBN: 0800758463   DDC: 242.68   Edition: Paperback; 2007-09-01

Summary:

Pets are such a big part of so many of our lives. As any pet lover
knows, a wagging tail or a tender purr can soothe the soul after a
hard day. And sometimes, the presence of dogs and cats in our lives
can do even more. In these delightful books, Callie Smith Grant
collects stories that celebrate the dogs and cats in our
lives--stories that touch our hearts, renew our spirit, and show us
how God created these beasts for unique purposes. A funny little dog
named Prince earns his title by protecting the children of the house.
A "dickens of a cat" gives a cancer survivor something else to think
about. A lively litter of puppies soothes a troubled child. A scrawny
kitten helps an anorexic girl begin to eat. Well-known authors,
including Melody Carlson, Tracie Peterson, and Robert Benson, as well
as new voices share their inspirational true stories of these
otherwise ordinary cats and dogs whose presence in the lives of
humans make them remarkable. Each book also includes interesting
sidebars, memorable quotes, helpful hints for living with dogs and
cats, and forewords by H. Norman Wright. The stories are warm,
captivating, and ideal for a good curl-up-and-read or for a gift to
any pet lover. Cat lovers, dog lovers, and anyone who likes to read
uplifting stories will cherish these books.
