The Nokomis Post Office is over on 34th. Beware the Cat could be about some of our neighbors. The stories of a long time letter carrier are the chapters each is a short story with new characters and small bits of every day life. These are stories about living and dieing. The are the common and real struggles of just about the business of living.
If you ride the bus to work or need a short read waiting for an appointment, this is a book for you. Each chapter is independent and stands alone. Fun, sad, happy reading. High suspense, road chases and fantastic adventures make for good reading but so does a study of being human, of being part of a neighborhood. Stories about nice people doing nice things is a pleasant summer afternoon read.
Beware of Cat is one of the books on the 10th grade summer reading list. Good summer read. If you looking for shootings and lovings and wild mystery then you will want to read one of the others. Good stories and people and real living.
