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.
so-soThey 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
"I am the dog. I like the light. / I run and jump and bark and bite."
This book can be used to discuss point of view and character traits. Teachers can encourage students to write poems from the perspective of different animals or even inanimate objects.
pickIn this delightful collection, Hall presents two distinct voices: one from a dog and the other from a cat. The poems capture their personalities and their contrasting perspectives on life, making this a fun read for children.
pickI really liked how this book made the story for believable and entertaining
