The volume consists of two young children's books meant to be read to them or for beginning readers. The Authors are grand parents who wrote them for their grand children. The Toet (H. Randolph Tatem III, MD) wrote about Varmint, our beloved cat. Varmint was an odd-eyed white long haired cat. Sue Binkley Tatem, Ph.D. wrote about the colors and illustrated both stories. Sue also illustrated other childrens' books: The Reluctant Racehorse by Kyra Knoll, and A Thousand Eyes by Paddy Fleming (a dog story set in Africa).
