Synopsis

Homer, the world-renowned Blind Wonder Cat, returns this holiday season with an ins-purr-ational tale filled with holiday cheer!Fifteen years earlier, doctors had warned that Homer—a tiny, sightless kitten—was unlikely to survive and probably wouldn’t have much of a life even if he did. Miraculously and against all the odds, however, Homer grew into a feline dynamo who scaled seven-foot bookcases with ease, saved his human mom’s life when he chased a late-night burglar from their apartment, and rose to global fame—paving the way for other special-needs animals once considered “unadoptable.”Now, only two weeks before Christmas, with doctors once again decreeing that Homer didn’t have much time—that he wouldn’t even make it to Christmas Eve—Homer showed everyone that he still had one more miracle left in him. The heroic blind cat proved again, once and for all, that hope and love aren’t things you see with your eyes. You see them with your heart.Humorous and heartwarming, Homer and the Holiday Miracle will leave you filled with the true spirit of the season.

About Gwen Cooper

Gwen Cooper is the author of several novels and memoirs, including the New York Times bestselling Homer’s Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned about Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat. She is a frequent speaker at shelter fundraisers; donates 10 percent of her royalties from Homer’s Odyssey to organizations that serve abused, abandoned, and disabled pets; and serves on the advisory board of Tabby’s Place in Ringoes, New Jersey. She lives in Manhattan with her husband, Laurence. She also lives with her two perfect cats—Clayton “the Tripod” and his litter-mate, Fanny—who aren’t impressed with any of it.

Neither is blind but I developed a long-distance- heartfelt bond with Homer when I read the previous book, My Life in a Cat House by Gwen last year.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the chance to read this book! I read Gwen Cooper's book about Homer a few years back, and I loved both the writing and the story of Homer.
