This is a picture book. The story comes from the journals of Lucy Maud Montgomery, author of Anne of Green Gables and many other great books. I think it’s a very clever way to do a take off on her material. Montgomery was an ardent journal writer. There is a five volume edited, published set of her journals. This story about L.M. finding adopting and then recovering her cat, tells the story of her life as viewed by her beloved cat, Daffy. Janet Wilson’s detailed illustrations are a perfect match. It’s a quick read, but a definite must have for every Montgomery fan.
