Radically textured paint and collage illustrations combine with informative rhyming text as the imagined journeys of a young girl’s cat become an upbeat introduction to the landmarks and traditions of Europe.

Cute story about a little girl with a vivid imagination about where her cat goes when he goes on adventures outside the house. The story is more like a poem, with a rhyming and rhythmic narrative that is fun to read aloud. The tale is creative and educational, too, teaching a little bit about European culture and history. And the illustrations are bold and colorful - very entertaining story. Also included are a map of his travels and a little blurb of expanded information about each of the c

In this charming picture book, a little girl imagines what her cat does when he wanders off at night, and she imagines what he'd tell her about his adventures if he could talk. So what does this cat do? He goes on a European Adventure of course! In verse, the girl chronicles her cat's adventures in England, France, Italy, Spain, Austria, Greece, and Holland.
Here's what she has to say about his trip to Spain:

I would give this a 3 star and my daughter would give it a 4 star, so I'll go with her rating. I like how they can learn a little about the different countries that the cat visits. My daughter loves the book because on every page, there are "real" things mixed in with the illustrations and she likes to find them.

What a cute book! Eric bought this for Portia when he was in Dallas and I was surprised by how much I like it. Cute rhymes and I love the illustrations and the cat's trip to Europe. I love the explanation of the different countries at the end of the book. This has become a quick favorite at bedtime.

I liked the rhymes of the book, but was a little disappointed that it was not better. However, I think I am biased as I don’t like anything French and this books has in my opinion too many pages based around France. I would have liked to have seen Russia or Scandinavia.

The genre of this book is a poem.
The book is about the things a little girl's cat would tell her if he could talk. It shows the travels the cat takes across Europe. The front of the book shows a map of Europe, and the back of the book has a page that tells facts about the different countries the cat travelled to.
Activities:
1) This would be an amazing book to read while learning about different cultures around the world.
2) Art could be incorporated by having the stud More...
