Table of ContentsReviewsA fan-ci-ful weav-ing of facts and dream-like thoughts, this gen-tle, enchant-i-ng book enhances real-i-ty as it intro-duces young read-ers to a his-tor-i-cal fig-ure they may nev-er have encountered. Ketem, a wise Israeli cat, is about to face the loss of his com-fort-able book-store abode in Jerusalem. He has decid-ed that his new res-i-dence will be the book-filled home of Pro-fes-sor Mar-tin Buber, the world-renowned author and philoso-pher. Per-haps based on Buber's leg-endary rela-tion-ship with his cat, the philosopher's rep-u-ta-tion is well-known among the local fer-al felines. The cats con-fer, dis-cussing the plau-si-bil-i-ty of mov-ing in with the ven-er-a-ble sage. Respect and rela-tion-ships -- key-stones of Buber's world-view -- per-me-ate this engag-ing book. It is an excel-lent can-di-date for night-time read-ing or for any time you and your chil-dren need to remem-ber some impor-tant and last-ing values. -- Website (10/14/2022 12:00:00 AM) Author InformationSusan Tarcov grew up next to the Bronx Zoo, a great inspiration for writing children's books.
