Catnip: A Love Story/ Michael Korda/ 187 pgs

The author of this "graphic" book is a writer and former editor-in-chief of Simon & Schuster. He's also a talented sketch artist and this book is full of little sketches he did for his Margaret in the year before she died. The couple were avid horsepeople and lived on a farm in New England with an assortment of indoor/outdoor/stable cats. Korda drew the sketches to amuse his wife as she dealt with cancer. They are cute, often funny, and sometimes poignant sketches of their cats (and a couple of horses). There are one-page bios on most of the cats, plus a few notes about the Kordas life.
