| Summary | "Mammy Tittleback and Her Family: A True Story of Seventeen Cats" by Helen Jackson (H. H.) is a charming children's story written in the late 19th century. This delightful narrative centers around the experiences of a beloved mother cat, Mammy Tittleback, and her large family of kittens. The book captures the curiosity and innocence of children as they engage with the lives of cats on a farm, portraying themes of friendship, love, and caring for animals. The story begins with Mammy Tittleback's introduction as a tortoise-shell cat who arrives at the Wellington household and quickly becomes part of the family. As the tale unfolds, the children Johnny and Rosy Chapman discover Mammy Tittleback's kittens and become deeply attached to them, creating imaginative adventures to help care for the feline family. Throughout the summer, the children engage in playful antics with the kittens, constructing a special house for them and attempting to teach them the alphabet. After several ups and downs, including the adoption of four orphaned kittens, the story culminates with the children receiving unexpected news that their beloved cats have been sent to live with them permanently, bringing joy and laughter to their lives once again.
