A can, a fly, a seesaw, a bee.Two jaunty cats see it all as they spend the day playing their own version of I Spy.Soon enough, their play grows into boisterous fun where wordplay is the name of the game, and the ingenious concept behind this My First I Can Read Book.

"Clever and bright." —Kirkus Reviews

Children's Literature

The simple sentences in this book focus on the verb "to see." The vocabulary is controlled and similar to the earlier Dick and Jane type of reader. The colorful watercolor pictures add interest to a rather limited story. However, children who are just beginning to read would probably be thrilled to be able to read a whole book like this to themselves or a sympathetic listener. Part of the "My First I Can Read" series targeted to emergent readers.
