Having grown up in poverty without a father and as the subject of bullying, the author at a young age turned to pets (and particularly cats) to provide her with unconditional love and acceptance. Unfortunately, during her youth, she never overcame her low self-esteem and had difficulty believing in God. It took a bad marriage to a controlling and abusive individual, and a birthday gift of one extraordinary cat, Clio, to drive home the early lesson she had learned about pets. Clio was the runt of the litter, survived cancer twice, and had an incredible will to live. She knew no fear (sometimes to her detriment) and was able to overcome not one, but two, major disabilities. This book is funny, touching, and inspirational and should appeal to not only cat and pet lovers, but anyone who has ever overcome a disability or faced serious illness, been bullied, or lost his or her faith.

What happens to a family of four when it travels over 18,000 miles in five weeks? In this nonfiction account the authors family follows in the century-old footsteps of writer Holly J. Pierces grandmother Ruth Crapo taken during her six-month Grand Tour of Europe and beyond. While the Grand Tour was designed to educate and refine a 27-year-old young lady, this contemporary journey initially planned to be both one of connection with the past and a chance to strengthen family bonds turns into a hectic, often grimly humorous forced march. Based on the words of Grandmother Ruths diary, the trek taken a century later comes to life through the candid words hastily scratched into the author and her daughters diaries as the family scrambled to make connections with trains, ferries, metros and planes. How the whine of circular saws, pushy Italian futbol players and French onion soup serve to both tear apart and heal wounds and grievances among these four travelers make it a trip not to be missed.
