When Dragon finds a stray cat in his yard, he brings it inside to escape the cold. He likes living with his new feline friend, but Dragon soon realizes that he doesn’t know how to take care of it. He doesn’t know how to train the cat, what to feed the cat, and what to do about all the yellow puddles the cat leaves behind! Using his trademark humor and heart, Dav Pilkey illustrates the highs and lows of having a new pet in this tender story about care and responsibility.
This Acorn edition contains brand-new bonus content, including story prompts and how-to-draw pages!
{My thoughts} – I really enjoyed this book. I have not read this series previously to reviewing it recently for Scholastic.
Dragon is a fun character that hears a cat meowing outside his door. He tries to get it to come in time and time again but it just sits there. Eventually he picks it up and takes it in his house. He then has other issues, cause he has no idea how to care for a cat.
The words on the pages are written in an east to understand manner. The illustrations help the child to better understand the story. I think this is a great book to pick up for beginner readers. It is also a wonderful book to help show children how hard it can be to be a first time pet owner.
I look forward to reviewing more books in this series in the near future!
Final Conclusion: 5 Star Rating.
