The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips by Michael Morpurgo - review

Michael Morpurgo, The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips

This is a fast-moving story, full of adventure and suspense. It's about a girl, Lily, and her tabby cat, Adolphus Tips, who live on a farm together in Devon. One day, during the second world war, they are told they must move out because the army needs their village for training. Just as they were about to leave, Adolphus escapes, and much to Lily's consternation, she can not find him…

I really enjoyed this book because it's full of action and anticipation. It's a book that you'll find hard to put down!
