See the Dog: Three Stories About a Cat by David LaRochelle


Remember Dog from See the Cat: Three Stories about a Dog? Well, he's finally getting his own book. Wait a minute! That's a cat not a dog. Oh, I see. Cat's filling in for Dog. Sadly, the story was written for a dog not a cat. Will Cat survive all these doggish activities? 

Thoughts: Too funny! It was a joy to read the sequel to See the Cat. The text is short enough so I can use the book in storytime, but I'm also looking forward to sharing this See the Dog with first and second graders. The illustrations are bright and colorful. I like that several two-page spread illustrations are included to emphasize parts of the story. This is book two of a planned three book series. I can't wait to see what happens next. 

The author's website has a writing activity and a mixup activity to go along with the book. 

Themes: Dogs, Cats, Humorous Books, Elementary 

 (Illustrated by Mike Wohnoutka. Candlewick Press, 2021.)
