Written by Meindert DeJong, the 1954 Newbery award winner for The Wheel on the School, is a loving compassionate book perfect for the early reader. It's filled with simple limited vocabulary and repetitive text. The ideal book for 2nd - 4th grades, and younger children delight in having the story read to them over and over again.

The last little cat was born in a kennel, surrounded by dogs and dog cages and dog noises. The little cat was always half-cold and half-hungry - until the day it fell into the cage of the old, blind dog.

Then, for a while, the last little cat was warm, and the last little cat was well fed. But how could such a small cat know that barn doors are closed at night and that there are people in the world who do not want to help a helpless kitten.

The story of how the last little cat found a home, and not only a home, but the perfect home, again confirms Meindert DeJong's place among the finest writers of this or any day.
