| Beware of starting this book late in the evening, because you'll have trouble putting it down! The premise is irresistible, in which 13-year-old Dominic notices, on a live NY webcam, a supposedly dead Senator who'd been about to testify against inter ...more | |

| This book has everything: a trip into history on a sailing ship, high-stakes adventure, plenty of yearning to be reunited with loved ones, and narration by a cat who sounds just like a cat should. I have to assume kids will love it, but hey, this gro ...more | |

| I agree with previous reviewers about this book's charm and feel-good elements, and want to also highlight its gentle humor. The once-pampered palace rat Henri is (to mix metaphors) a fish out of water after he lands in the countryside. He doesn't kn ...more | |

“Judge: Mr. Larch, you've heard the case for the prosecution. Is there anything you wish to say before I pass sentence?
Mr. Larch: Well... I'd just like to say, m'lud, I've got a family ... a wife and six kids ... and I hope very much you don't have to take away my freedom ... because ... well, because m'lud, freedom is a state much prized within the realm of civilized society. It is a bond wherewith the savage man may charm the outward hatchments of his soul, and soothe the troubled breast into a magnitude of quiet. It is most precious as a blessed balm, the savior of princes, the harbinger of happiness, yea, the very stuff and pith of all we hold most dear. What frees the prisoner in his lonely cell, chained within the bondage of rude walls, far from the owl of Thebes? What fires and stirs the woodcock in his springe or wakes the drowsy apricot betide? What goddess doth the storm-tossd mariner offer most tempestuous prayers to? Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!
Judge: It's only a bloody parking offence.”

“As you learn English, remember that reading out loud is a separate skill from reading quietly to yourself. Some people can understand words on a page without understanding how the sentence flows or how the words are pronounced. So, practice reading out loud—not only will it help you on this portion of the exam, but you’ll find that it improves your ability to remember English words.”

“My darling, what a cat they have! Something perfectly stupendous. Siamese, in colour dark beige, or taupe, with chocolate paws and the tail the same. Moreover, his tail is comparatively short, so his croup has something of a little dog, or rather, a kangaroo, and that’s its colour, too. And that special silkiness of short fur, and some very tender white tints on its folds, and wonderful clear-blue eyes, turning transparently green towards evening, and a pensive tenderness of its walk, a sort of heavenly circumspection of movement. An amazing, sacred animal, and so quiet – it’s unclear what he is looking at with those eyes filled to the brim with sapphire water.”
