Cat Who Wasn't There by Linda Newbery
This book contains purrfect tales about fab furry felines from celebrated author Linda Newbery. Vincent loves painting, but recently, his pictures - and his life - have been missing something...So when Vincent sees a flash of white in his garden, he is overjoyed. Could it really be Snow, his beloved cat? But Snow died a year ago, and he sadly realizes that this new white cat is his neighbours' pet, Skitter. Haunted by sad dreams of Snow, Vincent doesn't feel like painting at all any more. He starts to feel better when he is asked to look after Skitter during his neighbours' holiday, but then disaster strikes when Skitter escapes! However, it's when Vincent sets out to track down the errant cat that he also discovers the secret to improving his paintings - new paintings - with just the right hint of purriness..."Curl up with Cats Tales" is a charming collection of stand-alone stories, at turns magical, mysterious, comic and touching.
