I loved this book! Marco and Polo bring you right into the story. If you love cats and adventure, this book is for you.

my child's fourth grade teacher read this to the class. i bought a copy for my child to have as it was read out loud. it's an adorable, funny tale. there are several more books in this series...

The shipping was fast and on time during the holiday rush. The seller delivered a quality product as expected. Thank You!

My son would have his grandmother read this story everytime she visited. They loved it and it took them a long time to read each chapter. They would talk about each paragraph and never finish. He did over her grave last July 07. It would break your heart. My son loved this book and so did his grandmother. It will always have a special memory with us.

Great book for any cat lover

author of "Hobo Finds A Home"

The healing of Texas Jake is about six cats that do crazy adventures. This time they have to heal the big cat called Texas Jake. In order to do that, they must steal medicine from the meanest cat and the over the hill gang. He is a collector of animal tails. Can the cats get Texas Jake the stuff he needs to survive?

I would recommend this book for cat lovers. I wouldn't recommend this book to dog lovers or adults because it's about cats and it's a fun book because it's filled with a little of laughter and violence, but not too much, but a lot of questions. So, do you think the cats will get the medicine from the over the hill gang?

The Healing of Texas Jake is a fascinating book. The outrageous main characters are Texas Jake, Carlotta, Marco, and Polo. The main problem is they have to get comfrey to heal T.J.'s wounds, but the over-the-hill-gang is where he comfrey is. The setting is in a small town. One reason I like this book is because it is very adventurous book. Another reason I like this book is because the main characters are animals. Last but not least I like it because all the cats have to do something for T.J., and that is fascinating to read about. I would encourage my friends to read this book because it sweeps you off you're feet when your done!

I liked Marco and Polo. They reminded me of my brother and me. I think the other cats were cool but I didn't like Jake very well. I think he was selfish and mean. I liked the steaknife game and how you sometimes can't trust what people say.

If you have read The Grand Escape, you will love The Healing of Texas Jake. It's exciting and you won't be able to put it down.

This is a great sequel to the "Grand Escape" by Naylor. My students and I really enjoyed it. The only problem was they books started falling apart the day we got them. There was obviously a flaw in the way the book were bound (glued.) My students were so excited about reading them I just taped them as we read and told them they would be able to write in them and keep them. Meanwhile, I had already ordered a few extra before the first ones arrived. When the extras came, I sent them back unopened, telling customer service of the problem I had with the originals. I never received a reply. I was disappointed with this service and with the Alladin paperbacks.
