Katie Loves the Kittens

 

Katie is dog dog who is so super excited when her owner, Sara Ann, brings home three new kittens.  Katie loves the kittens and is excited to play with them, but when Katie expresses her excitement, she frightens the kittens.  Sara Ann tells Katie that she is scaring the kittens and warns her to give them time to get used to her.  Still every time Katie sees the kittens she can't contain herself and ends up scaring them away.
I went to the library to look for books for my annotated bibliography and came across this book.  I wanted to check it out but decided not to because I couldn't think of any lesson plans to attach it with or how it would benefit students in an educational way.  I was very excited to learn it was on my book list and I went right away to check it out for this first book talk.  I have a passion for animals having 2 dogs and 4 cats myself.
I think is book is really great for anyone looking to read for entertainment reasons, but like I stated before, there is no real educational lesson to be taken from this book besides maybe patience.
