It’s a poem.
It’s a novel.
About Jack who hates cats but finds he loves kittens.
It’s funny.
His mother is deaf and he can sign.
His amazing teacher teaches him:
alliteration
and
onomatopoeia,
assonance and consonance (I said, “Huh? too!”),
simile and metaphor.
But the best part is that his uncle Bill, who is a stick-in-the-mud,
is allergic to cats.
Hate That Cat?
No, LOVE this book!
For ages 8-12.
And Love That Dog is the first book.
