“The cat walked through the world with its whiskers, ears, and paws, and the bird saw A CAT.”
This story would be a great implementation into the classroom for a deeper dive into identity. I also think this book would be a great lesson opener for ideas of what point of view is.
They All Saw A Cat, written by Brendan Wendell is a 2017 Caldecott Honor award winning book. This book had beautiful images with bright colors that jump off the page. The story had beautiful point of views that open up the reader into the cat‘s setting. Overall the theme of the book of identity resonates with me deeply
This book could be used when talking about friendship and leadership. This could also be used if a new student were to come into the class and the teacher wanted to remind the students that they can help others.
This book is a 2018 Caldecott winner. The first main cat of this story is tasked with showing the new “little cat“ how to live life. This is a story of trust and friendship between two beings. I think that the way this book is laid out also helps with the emotions that the first cat is feeling.
I think this book would be an awesome addition to the classroom library and also would make a good lesson about friendship and making new friends and the beginning of the year.
