SRP 2013 REVIEW: This book is not well named, it is actually the story of a bellboy, a cat named Kaspar, and a little girl named Lizziebeth. The story meanders and trips along.

SRP 2012 REVIEW: I enjoyed this book, and liked the characters. Some of it a bit more unbelievable and I was hoping to read at the end that it was based on a true story. But, it was good overall and a quick read.
