Customer Reviews

I thrilled my daughter!

My daughter is now 17 years old. When she was a preschooler and in elementary school we would go to the library every week and I would let her pick out a few books. Each time we visited the library she would renew her very favorite book that she still held in her little hands "Axle The Freeway Cat". I have hunted for years for a copy of this out of print book. I was thrilled when I checked before Christmas and saw it was now available. My daughter opened it Christmas morning and let out a little scream, She was thrilled and still today says it is her all time favorite. Thanks for a great transaction and a great memory.

Fabulous book!

My son fell in love with this book when he was young. He took it out of the library every single time we visited, which was very often. Thacher Hurd is incredibly creative. He writes and illustrates a wonderful story that will always be fascinating!
