Illustrated by
Linda Bronson.
The outdoor life of an alley cat suits Moe McTooth, until the cold, wet winter comes. He is rescued by a woman and discovers the cozy peacefulness of life as an indoor cat but then slips outside again when spring makes him stir-crazy. Although the story is somewhat tame, its language is poetic and the colorful oil paintings are sophisticated.
