(4) K-3 Illustrated by Tasha Tudor. On Christmas Eve an abandoned cat is rescued by a man scattering seeds, nuts, and leafy branches for the woodland animals. The man's sons, uneasy that Santa won't make it through the snow, are the delighted recipients of the cat on Christmas morning. Both cat and boys believe a small miracle has occurred. Cold, snow-blown forest scenes alternate with cozy, old-fashioned interiors in this revised edition of a sentimental story.
