With the picture of Max the Dog below the words See the Cat, this masterpiece jumped off the library shelves and into my heart. And the hearts of all the children I’ve shared it with. This book will evoke a staple for childrens’ libraries for years to come.

Some easy words and some to learn. See the cat! She loves this book because it has 3 stories about a dog. He keeps saying. I am not a cat. There is a snake under the rug the dog is sitting on! Yikes! Illustrations of the dog"s faces are perfect with the stories.

This teacher LOVES this book!

See the Cat by David LaRochelle and Mike Wohnoutka is three delightful stories in one book. I highly recommend this book for young readers, writing teachers, and dog lovers. Often, when a book is "decodable" the storyline is dreadfully boring and requires very little, if any, inferential thinking. The author and illustrator of See the Cat have created a decodable, funny, AND enjoyable book. As a teacher of striving readers, I would love to see more of these books in libraries! (Round Rock Public Library does have two copies! Yay, RRPL!)

As a writing teacher, I think this would be great for a mini-lesson on revision. In the second story, Max actually takes his pencil, inserts one word, and saves his own life! What a wonderful example to young writers of how adding one word can change your story. I think it would be appropriate to use this in writing lessons from kindergarten through fifth grade.

Happy Reading!
Tammy

Great starter

My daughter picked this up at the library and we all loved it so much that I bought it and the see the dog companion book. Great books for kids to start reading with. She could sound out most of the simpler words and has been working on the larger ones progressively through the chapters. It’s also a very funny premise with the book being about a dog taking the place of a cat. Kids loved it!

Great for pre-readers

I first bought See the Dog by the same author for my five year old granddaughter and she declared it her favorite book ever. So for Christmas I bought her See the Cat. She also loves that book. She quickly learned to read most of the words on the left pages (this will make sense when you see how the book is written) and I'm sure she'll soon be reading it independently.

We love this book so much we've bought it 3 times

A favorite of our preschooler (3 years old) and her newly reading sister (6 years old). The stories are adorable and funny, for the parents too. We have a copy that we treasure, and love it so much we bought copies for friends. Perfect for a new reader, and also fantastic to add to the bedtime book rotation.

Great story told with simple sight words

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 27, 2021

This was just what we needed! All of the words are easy for my 4 year old to read without needing to throw in overly complex words to get a story told. My child was excited to read more because he wasn’t stumbling over the non sight words you find in “level 1” readers which is exactly what I was looking for. When he was able to get through a chapter he wanted to call everyone he knew to read to them. Major kudos to the author for encouraging young children to read through a fun story told with a handful of words. I am grateful!

It's silly and fun

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 12, 2021

This book is silly and children get a big kick out of it. It's wording is good for young readers.
There is a typo in the last part and the text does not fit into the talking bubble- that seems an odd oversight in an otherwise fun story book.
The art is cute, and not the stuff of horrific nightmares like many of the less expensive children's books I have found.
