This precious story is about a little boy named Nick who decides to teach his cats how to read. The author and illustrator really captured the innocence and pure imagination of children through this story. This story can encourage children to read and want to learn to read. In the story, one of Nicks's cats, Vern, stays up at night even when Nick is sleeping just so he can practice reading! They really depict the value of reading in this book in a fun way for children! Good for primary students. ( ) Having always spent as much time as he can with his two cats, Verne and Stevenson, the eponymous Nick decides one summer that he will teach them to read. His efforts seem futile at first, but his patient persistence pays off, and soon Verne is a library card-carrying bibliophile. The grouchy Stevenson remains more difficult to persuade, until Nick and Verne discover his stash of drawings, and realize that he loves pirate tales. Soon Stevenson too is bitten by the reading bug... A sweetly engaging tale from debut author Curtis Manley is paired with fun, appealing artwork from illustrator Kate Berube in The Summer Nick Taught His Cats to Read. As someone who was a bibliophile and library lover as a young child myself, as well as a devoted cat person, I was tickled by Nick's efforts to share his passion with his best friends. I appreciated the way in which he altered his teaching approach, in order to reach his "students," and I found the cats' expressions (especially Stevenson's!) amusing. I don't know that I loved this one quite as much as the friend who recommended it to me, but I certainly did find it enjoyable. Recommended to all young cat lovers and bibliophiles. Thanks to Goodreads friend Kathryn for recommending this book to me! This is the first time in a long while that a picture book not by Patricia Polacco has become a favorite picture book of mine. Charming, sweet, funny book! It’s delightful! I loved the cats. Not for the first time I wish I had a cats shelf. Verne and Stevenson are great cats. I love their expressiveness and distinct personalities. Their facial expressions are priceless and just looking at them had me smiling. They act like real cats but I love Nick’s interpretations of their actions. I loved the bond between Nick and Verne and the one he has with Stevenson too. I appreciated how the story showed how reading can fire up our imaginations. I loved how the story subtly showed learning differences, not in a qualitative way at all and I loved Nick’s patience and persistence and sense of fun as he was teaching his cats. I loved the place the library has in this book, cat patron card and all. This is a perfect book for children who love books & reading, kids who have challenges learning to read, reluctant readers, kids who love cats. I also highly recommend it to all teachers & tutors and parents and all people who read to and with children. It’s beyond adorable. I can’t stop grinning. I recommend this to all readers who can enjoy children’s picture books, especially those who particularly like cats, teaching, and of course books & reading. 5 very full stars! inga recensioner | lägg till en recension
When Nick decides to teach his cats to read, Verne is very much interested, especially in books about mice and fish, but Stevenson wants nothing to do with the project--or does he? Inga biblioteksbeskrivningar kunde hittas. |
