Matilda is sure her cat likes many things. Like playing with wool; however, clever readers will be able to guess that Matilda’s interpretations of what her cat likes isn’t quite accurate. Upon turning the page Matilda discovers what the readers already guessed…that perhaps Matilda’s cat doesn’t like “playing with wool.” Instead Matilda tells us another thing that her cat likes. And so on until we discover the one thing that Matilda’s cat really does enjoy.This is quite a fun little book that will help readers learn about deciphering clues as to what is happening not only by reading the words on a page but also by looking at the clues in the illustrations and expressions of the characters. Readers who have a special love for young furry things will have an extra special place in their hearts and homes for this story. A great edition to any pet-lover’s library. SO STINKING CUTE. Matilda goes through a diverse list of activities, none of which her cat likes. The ending makes this story so I won't spoil it. Matilda's cat costume, reminiscent of Max from Wild Things, is adorable and showcases their close friendship. The cat's reactions to Matilda's activities are funny, perfectly illustrated, and typical of a cat. A perfect read aloud but it requires the audience's attention.
Do You like book De Kat Van Saar (2013)?
Not my favorite Emily Gravett, but still fun.
