Overview

"Perfect for kindergarteners to read on their own--a fun story about a cute cat who learns colors and meets new friends! Cat likes red. Red is nice. Cat likes yellow. Yellow is nice. Cat meets a red ladybug. Turn the page- Cat and Cat's new friend are outdoors in a ""red"" scene, chock full of details. Cat meets more friends--including a lizard, a fish, and a bee. Cat and friends explore seven monochromatic landscapes that are a feast for the eyes- a yellow field, a green meadow, a blue ocean, and more. The 44-word-text repeats 13 different words, including words for 7 colors. The fascinating, kid-pleasing art supports the storytelling, and at the same time, introduces children to a new way of looking at colors. Your new reader will build skills, gain confidence, and have fun too! I Like to Read- The award-winning I Like to Read series features guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas & Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators--including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors--create original, high-quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read again and again with their parents, teachers or on their own!"
