Tales of a Tom Cat Marcia Plumley

"Tales of a Tom Cat" is a chapter book. It is based on reality and true experiences but exaggerated into fiction. It is written for children ages 7-10, but can be read to younger children. It contains humor and some good life lessons. The stories are about a cat named Gabby who was rescued by my grandson, Alex, from the local animal shelter. Gabby was there because he meowed too much. He had lived in an apartment and was very unhappy because he wanted to be an outside cat. The book is about Gabby's experiences at our home on a lake next to the woods where he meets all kinds of wildlife creatures. He learns to be a good outside cat, a good mouser, and a good friend. He finds happiness and learns about love.
