From the Publisher:
Norton the Cat and his human friends, Peter Gethers and Norman Stiles, have compilied the purrfect book (illustrations by William Bramhall) of the power behind their masters -- their cat. From Eva Peron's, Felita, to Moses's Cat who carried down the 11 commandments -- the 11th being "thou shall not eat the same food two days in a row." This book is humorous and eye opening. A great book for the cat lover in all of us. -- Louis Mendez, editorial
