Under the Cat's Eye is a great book. Eleven year old Jai comes to live in a strange looking boarding school where he'll find many mysterious secrets. Hugo and Seal are Jai's two new friends, but Jai isn't too sure about them because they think the headmaster is a drakle! When several students change into school perfects, after visiting Mr.Drake, the school headmaster, the three friends get suspicious. This is a very exciting book with lots of fun surprises that you'll never guess!

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Impressive!!, November 22, 2002
A Kid's Review
Wow. Under the Cat's Eye is a book to read around other people, in bright daylight. The plot isn't very complicated, but is dazzlingly original and really, really scary. It is about a boy called Jai who goes to this boarding school, Nexhoath. He befriends two children, Seal and Hugo, who tell him their thoery about the creepy headmaster, Mr. Drake. (It's kind of hard to talk about this without giving away too much of the plot.) Meanwhile, mysterious changes are coming over the children at Nexhoath, and Jai finds out the truth about two workers at the school, Kitty and Roughly. Gillian Rubinstein gives all the characters believable quirks, like how Jai does math problems in his head to calm himself down when he is nervous or sad. It really helps you to relate to the characters. I am very impressed with Under the Cat's Eye! I would reccomend it to people aged nine to fourteen.

5.0 out of 5 stars The one you cant put down, November 13, 2000
By 
"h711rluv" (California, USA) - See all my reviews
Onec in a while there is a story that you just cant put down. This is one of them. You end up saying, "just one more minute," about a dozen times and you will love every bit of this story. While his parents sort out some legal difficulties Jai goes off to boarding school. In boarding school there areplenty of odd people, starting with the principle. There is no oddity between the students, only outsid e of the school are there differences. When Jai goes to a different world things start to straighten themselves out.
