We enjoyed listening to this book narrated on cassette tape as we followed alo...more
I loved all of the Cranberry books when I was little and now Oliver loves them too. He loves to quote Mr . Whiskers' "suffering codfish."
No where near as charming as Cranberry Thanksgiving-a book I have long loved...
I really liked it. It should have 6 stars.
Good holiday book (valentines)
Cute! Mr. Whiskers is getting sentimental, perfumed valentines from a secret admirer, and he isn't so sure he wants someone after him.
Who is sending those love notes?? Mr whiskers has a secret admire.
