From the Publisher
One day, Mog wakes up and nothing is right in her house. There are too many people ‹ a jolly uncle hanging holly, two aunts on tippy-toe ‹ not to mention a very large tree coming through the front door! Mog runs for the roof and there she stays until she unexpectedly returns to the house with a thump. ³Merry Christmas, Mog!² Another charmingly funny installment in Judith Kerr¹s Mog series.

This is one of the best Christmas books,
By
This review is from: Mog's Christmas (Hardcover)
I received a copy of Mog's Christmas for my second Christmas in 1979 from an Aunt. I fell in love with the story and Mog's reaction to all of the changes in "her house" at Christmas time. My favorite part is when Mog thinks: "It was a tree, a tree walking!" What Mog does not see is that Mr. Thomas is carrying the family Christmas tree inside the house.
The author has masterfully interpreted the feline perception of the flurry of Christmas activity. This book is a must for any child or adult who loves cats or the hustle and bustle surrounding Christmas time. I have read this book to or with my family every Christmas since 1979. I even read this book to my second grade students last Christmas, and they really enjoyed it. I plan to make time to read this litte gem to my students every year at Christmas time from now on.

Adorable Holiday Children's Book,
By
This review is from: Mog's Christmas (Hardcover)
Mog is in shock. Strange things are happening at her house, and she doesn't like it one bit. Everyone is running about the house, hanging up mistletoe and decorations, blowing up balloons, baking loads of food. So Mog runs outside, and climbs up to the roof where she can be away from all of the hectic festivities. Until suddenly she finds herself in the house again, with everyone wishing her a happy holiday.
I adore cats, and Christmas is my favorite holiday, so MOG'S CHRISTMAS quickly won a place in my heart. Judith Kerr has created a lovely children's book that will show the reaction of a cat when anything about his/her house changes, whether it's for a day, a week, or more. The illustrations are absolutely lovely, and will quickly make MOG'S CHRISTMAS a favorite for the winter holidays. Erika Sorocco Book Review Columnist for The Community Bugle Newspaper
