Julia Eccleshare's comment:
Highly entertaining, this is a touching story about an unlikely friendship between two cats. Stuck up Sir Cecil aspires to the higher way of life – such as the one his master leads; Cubby is a scruffy down to earth cat who relishes Sir Cecil’s luxurious lifestyle. How the two become firm friends after a number of serious mishaps is delightfully told in the easy-to-read chapters of this book. This is just one of a number of Pocket Money Puffins.
