Cat Comes Too: 08/11/13

Cat Comes Too by Hazel Hutchin is a new picture book about a little cat who follows its owner up to the attic. The owner is looking for something and through the cat's natural curiosity, the owner manages to find the missing thing.

It's a cute book with bold pictures that are eye catching and large enough to be seen during a a group story time. As the text is quite sparse and the vocabulary rather basic, it's best either for a very young audience or a beginning reader.

My daughter who has moved onto longer books enjoyed the book while reading it over my shoulder. She, though, wished the book could have been longer. She, did, though, appreciate the moral that everyone, no matter how small or how young, can help.

Four stars
