They All Saw a Cat
Publisher: Chronicle Books
A cat goes out for a walk and runs into quite a few other animals on the way. With a very simple, repetitive text that encourages readers to join in, the illustrations provide a unique insight into how each animal sees the cat itself.
The image of the cat changes, sometimes quite dramatically, to reflect this perspective – it appears as a terrifying beast to a mouse, but a big furry home for a flea.
A Caldecott Honor book, this is a lovely story that provides a great starting point for both young and older readers to talk about how we can all view the same things very differently.
