Interpretation In Pursuance Of Books The House Of Thirty Cats
Sarah liked to think of Miss Tabitha Henshaw's house as "almost an enchanted place." With her thirty cats, there was no better place to visit if you wanted just the right kitten. Soon Sarah and the old lady become friends, and Sarah also gets to know each of the cats' personalities. But when an angry neighbor complains to the town council, they tell Miss Tabitha the cats must go. Then Sarah has an idea: if she can match cats with people, perhaps she can find all her feline friends new homes.

The middle-school me would have given this book a solid five stars. Reading it again forty years later, it gets a nostalgic four. I too wanted a cat, and couldn't have one. My dad often boastfully said, "The only good cat is a dead one. " Interesting that the moment any of his children left home, the first thing all of us but one did, was acquire at least one cat. I pored over this story as a kid, loving Miss Tabitha and her cat-centred house. Nowadays, I know Miss Tabitha would be called a catThis book has a birthday party for cats in it. IT IS SUPER GOOD.
This was one of my favorite childhood books; it really spoke to me--the shy and unpopular girl, the eccentric and reclusive old lady with thirty felines. Remembering it decades later, I sought it online and purchased the original 1967 hardcover edition. It's still a delight after all these years.
Still and always, utterly delightful.
Read this when I was a kid....and loved it. Now Antonia has picked up my old copy and has started reading it.....YAY!
It was so cute! I read it a few years ago, it is really good.
weirdly subversive for such a light book
