Book Reviews of Telling Time with Big Mama Cat

Book Review: Engaging book with delightful illustrations.
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a very simple tale (or tail!) of a cat's busy day. As you know, cats have quite a schedule to keep, what with napping, and eating, and napping again! Told from the cat's point of view, as she keeps her people company during the day. Interestingly, daddy is at home with the three girls, and mommy comes home from work at the end of the day. This point is very subtle though, you just see the dad walking the dog, and his hand here and there.

As you read, your kids can try to match the hands of the moveable clockface to the one in the story.

Lovely watercolor illustrations in a realistic style. Look for the little mouse hiding every few pages!

Summary of Telling Time with Big Mama Cat

A snack at 9:00, a nap at 10:00, sneaking onto the forbidden chair at 11:00--telling time is the only way Big Mama Cat can remember all the important things she has to do. Follow Big Mama Cat from sunrise till day's end, and you can learn to tell time, too! A sturdy fold-out page at the front of the book reveals a clock with movable plastic hands. Young readers can change the time as Big Mama Cat moves from one adventure to the next in her busy day.
