Cuki volt gyerekkoromban, aranyos most is. A szórakoztató irodalom előfutára, másfél éves kortól :)

Three kittens change colors as they chase a mouse, a toad, and a fish.

There are three kittens: a black kitten, a gray kitten, and a white kitten. First, they chase a mouse, and they all turn white as a result of the chase. Then, they chase a toad, and they all turn black as a result of the chase. Finally, they chase a fish, and they all return to their original colors as a result of the chase.

This story is also included in the book Me Too!: Two Small Stories about Small Animals translated by Katya Arnold.

This is a basic book about kittens for the youngest preschoolers. It can be used to teach kids that people are all the same on the inside.
