I am happy to write that the book I am reviewing today is one of the best books that I've read all year. "Oliver, the Cat Who Saved Christmas" by Sheila Norton is a book that will bring much joy to your heart as you read it.
Oliver is living a nice life with his human George when the novel begins. One night, the pub where Oliver and George live catches on fire. Oliver is able to help George get out unscathed, but the pub and the adjacent town hall are a total loss.
In the confusion after the fire, Oliver gets lost, and he is trapped up a tree by a menacing fox. Luckily for Oliver, a young man named Daniel rescues him and takes Oliver back the small cottage where he lives with his girlfriend.
Daniel and his girlfriend don't really have enough money to take care of a cat, so Oliver goes to stay with the neighbors until George can get back on his feet and the the pub is rebuilt.
Oliver is a cat who cares about people, and through the course of the novel, he makes it his mission to help others. He is instrumental in several way in bringing people in the town together to help one another. Everyone whose lives are touched by Oliver is blessed.
The best part of the novel is Oliver's relationship with a young girl who is recovering from cancer treatment. It demonstrates how animals can make a difference in the lives of the lonely.
I highly recommend "Oliver, the Cat Who Saved Christmas". The book is written well, and you won't want to put it down once you've started reading it.
