Children have always found a delightful friend in James Herriot. His
award-winning stories for young readers bring the farmyard world of
Herriot's Yorkshire to vibrant life. Featuring a host of adorable
animals and colorful townsfolk, each of the stories is narrated by the
country vet himself, with all of the warmth, caring, and good humor that
have made James Herriot beloved the world over.

springtime frolic of Oscar, Cat-About-Town to the yuletide warmth of
The Christmas Day Kitten, these stories--radiantly illustrated by
Peter Barrett and Ruth Brown--are perennial favorites, and this new
complete edition will make a wonderful gift for all readers, great and
small.
Taken together, these stories comprise a wondrous Herriot menagerie, a
family treasure that will be passed, with joy and affection, from
generation to generation.
