Title:  Who's Mandie?
Author:  Lois Gladys Leppard
Reviewer:   Ashley B. '07

Who’s Mandie? begins when Mandie Shaw is walking home from school with her friend, Joe. While they are walking, a buggy car drives by and throws something out into the woods. Mandie soon discovered that it was a cat that was thrown out. The cat follows Mandie home and her father says she could keep it in the barn because her mother doesn’t like cats. The cat and her new kitten get into the house one day and Mrs. Shaw is very upset. While the cat is inside, it catches a rat, and Mrs. Shaw hates rats! She rewards the cat by letting it stay in their house.

I do not like this book as much as others I have read because the author spends too much time describing parts of the book that aren’t important. I would rate this book a 4 out of 10.
