The Nine Lives of Travis Keating by Jill MacLean

My son loved this book and asked if I would post about it. It is a story based in Canada written by Canadian author, Jill MacLean. The story is about a preteen boy named Travis, who lost his mother and lives with his Dad. They move to Newfoundland and he has a hard time adjusting and making friends. Travis ends up finding a colony of cats which he befriends and helps. He eventually makes some friends who also have difficulties and sadness within their families and the kids bond together through taking care of the cats. Much adventure, action & heart make this story a 'must-read' !

My son give it  two thumbs up.
