Overview

This is the story of an extended family and their persistent cat.  It features both rhyme and rhythm in a song-like text that supports new readers well. The humorous illustrations contain written messages that students will love to explore.

Purpose

The repetitive nature of this text helps early readers to practice skills for independent reading.  The illustrations support them in identifying the speakers and anticipating the action.  The story could be read with other Joy Cowley books or as part of a Gato Goloso theme.

Setting the scene

Students usually enjoy talking about their pets, and for those who don’t have a cat, the discussion can include the feeding of pets in general. Look at the cover and talk about the characters.
