As humorous and touching as her cat stories and watercolor illustrations are, Idabelle herself has been and continues to be a tremendous inspiration. A self-taught artist, with awards for her work from both the Ohio and National Grange, the oldest general farm organization in America, Idabelle continues to do additional stories and paintings and cannot be reached on most mornings, as she is outdoors doing chores or feeding the cats, and we dare not interrupt her on her bowling days. She is truly, a remarkable woman.
Here is a book filled with fun and thought for all ages, written by a cat especially for cats, friends of cats, and other independent thinkers. Abandoned as a kitten, Blackie finds a new home with Ma and Pa Berg on the Berg Dairy Farm. "Ice," as he comes to be known, soon discovers Ma has saved many cats from cruel abandonment and mistreatment. As told in his many humorous tales, Ice sheds the predatory nature of his species, transforming from an ordinary house cat into an extraordinary farmyard philosopher & aristo-Cat.
