Synopsis:
Cats of all shapes and sizes scamper, yawn, and stretch across the pages of this playful counting book. And every now and then, some of them pile into the purrfect cat stack!
Comments:
This is such a cute book! The cats are adorable and remind me a little of my hero Pusheen. The bold, colorful illustrations could work well with a group of children.
It makes me happy that the book works on more than one level. For toddlers, it is a book with cute cats having fun. For preschoolers, it is also a counting book. There is also slightly trickier math for the early elementary school students when sets are regrouped (or divided). This happens when 6 cats are divided into two groups of 3 cats and 9 cats are divided into three groups of 3 cats.
