A beautiful and tragic story about a black cat whom is considered back in the WW2 times to bring good luck.
This cat is no ordinary cat, however. She goes through so many things. You see things from her eyes whilst during World War 2. She visits many towns, goes through many owners and people who take care of her along the way. She endures bombs, raids, gun shells, temporary blindness and deafness. She becomes a mother, she saves people, places, other animals, hunts and is an awesome and seemingly magical cat. She brings good luck to all who meet her.
This story may make you look at your cat in a different light. It brought me a great appreciation to the feline species and a birds-eye view into their lives, in how they might think and feel.
This is a unique storyline, set in a unique time frame. I couldn't get enough of this little gem. Wonderful book

An intriguing story - uses the wanderings of this cat (as she searches for her beloved master) to tell the stories of several people faced with the horrors of WWII in England.
I read this book in my reading class when i was in 8th grade. This is the best book I have read. It puts you in the mind of this cat Lord Gort. She feels her hearth strings start pulling in her when her person joins the military and goes to war. Lord Gort travels across countries and open sea's to find her person. She experiances kindness and hate. This book will tug at your heart strings. I acually went and looked up some of the battle feilds Lord Gort went through and looked up some of the bombed building 'West minster Abbey' You can acuratly look up every detail of this book.
