Summary: GREAT BOOK BUT A LITTLE SAD
Review: *******SPOILER ALERT**********
This is not a book for people that like cats or other animals. It's not heartwarming, but is instead depressing. Unless you would like to read a book that is totally unbelievable (it doesn't just ask you to "use your imagination") with a "reward" for reaching the end being that they are going to kill off Toes after making him suffer and leave his owner/friend in a depressed state (and wondering where Toes is), then skip this book. If you want to read good books or have your kids read good books about animals with amazing abilities, then read the Redwall books by Brian Jacques. In the mean time, SKIP THIS BOOK ENTIRELY!!! Do not judge this book by it's cute cover picture. That's the only good thing about it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The lovable feline in TOES will steal the hearts of children
Review: A litter of cats is born into the McDonahue family. One kitten is shunned by the rest of the litter and becomes a favorite of the family due to his physical appearance and intelligence. The unusual kitten is named Toes because he has seven toes on each foot instead of five. The family soon realizes that Toes is not an ordinary cat. He loves listening to classical music, watching sports on TV, and riding in the car. His brothers and sisters are jealous of the attention that Toes receives from the family. They tease him and exclude him from all of their activities.

Toes is tired of being shunned by his siblings and decides to leave the McDonahue house. He sets out on an adventure one evening and takes refuge from the rain in the basement of a run-down house. A struggling musician named Sebastian soon befriends the extraordinary cat. When Toes learns of Sebastian's musical ambitions, he devises a plan to help him.

The lovable feline in TOES will steal the hearts of children, and the heartwarming ending will touch all readers, both young and old.
