Cat Storyhour
What a great session we had! I got out my face paint set from Klutz and did about a half dozen children in only about five minutes. B o o k s The Perfect Nest by Catherine Friend. I love to read books in bad foreign accents. Boris and the Wrong Shadow by Leigh Hodginkson. Cat Secrets by Jef Czekaj. Very interactive. I put on my cat makeup, so thata I looked like a cat so the cats in the book would tell us their secrets. (No one else would let me make them up.) But they all purred, and stretched, etc., so it was a good opener. Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes by Eric Litwin. No book better. Cat Up a Tree by John and Ann Hassett. All the moms were giggling at this charmer. Great formula: the number of cats increase on each page, and on each page concerned Nana Quimby calls a different institution for help, always unsuccessfully. I did the city officials in pompous, officious voices. I didn't count the ever increasing cats...
