Kindergarten Cat

Kindergarten Cat by Lewis, J. Patrick. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780375844751.

Heres the purr-fect read-aloud for kindergarteners! When Mr. Bigbuttons finds a tiny stray kitty cat outside near the jungle gym, he knows exactly where to bring it—into the kindergarten classroom, of course. And so the children welcome their newest classmate, name her Tinker Toy, and share their circle time spots with her. Tinker Toy fits right in, even answering Teachers questions with a loud "Meow!" J. Patrick Lewis is one of the most renowned childrens poets writing today, and he has created a real gem. His simple rhyming text demands to be read aloud—and the large type and bright, irresistible illustrations by Ailie Busby make this a fantastic book for story time in classrooms and libraries.
