Synopsis

Jack's Aunty Buzz, a retired Station Cat, comes to live at Tail's End. This book describes the adventures they have when Sidney the Signalman is taken ill.

Review

This was a lovely book for me to read, because it brought back so many memories of when we had a signal box at the level crossing down the road from my house. We used to go in and help the signal man with our kids, so it's wonderful to read a story of how 2 cats - Jack and AuntBuzz have helped Sidney the signal men when he feints.

Illustrations by Nigel Cliff are extremely accurate of the signal box both inside and outside and of course the signal itself. Again another excellent book for the 5-8 year olds - but parents will enjoy reading to them as well with these stories.

I more than highly recommend these books.
