What's This Book About
When her husband, James, dies suddenly, Jessie neglects William, James’s beloved cat. Then she realizes how lean and mean William has become without affection and that she needs his friendship, too. “This winning story stands among the growing number of picture books using country life as a metaphor and as a setting for playing out fundamental human experiences and dilemmas.”-The Horn Book
