On a dark and snowy night, a wayward cat shows up at the door of an old folks home. So begins Bill McDonald’s warm, offbeat tale. As always, the book’s cast of characters—residents of the home—may or may not be based upon real people. We come to know them through Oscar’s eyes as he tells of his life at Gull’s Wing Sanctuary.—Shawn Perich
