Otto the Cat (All Aboard Reading)

This story is about Otto the Cat and the day a new puppy comes to live at HIS house. The first two-page spread is typical of the whole book: a full-page picture on the right shows Otto being driven to the pet store; the left-hand page inserts pictures for many of the simple [nouns] being used, and reads -- "Otto is a [cat]. He lives in a [house]. MY [house], says Otto. He has a [bed]. MY [bed], says Otto."The story shows Otto wanting the puppy to stay away from his things but eventually growing to like him. The story is 11 pages of a few lines each, and is followed by four pages of flash cards (six on each page) which are mainly nouns contained in the story, with a picture on one side and the word opposite.Our toddler loves the feeling of participating in the reading, enjoys the funny story, and likes to point at or say the flash words. This is fun reading prep material that your preschooler might enjoy too!Others in the series are Silly Willy, Don't Wake the Baby and In a Dark, Dark House.

Great little book for children

I love to read Picture Reader books with my 2 1/2 yr old daughter because she thinks she can read along with me (when the pictures come up in the book) and she is very proud of herself. Most of the picture reader stories are silly stories, but entertaining for the little ones.

Clever and engaging story perfect for pre-readers.

Great for new readers. Highly motivating and interesting.

Great

this cat is really cute, and the story is easy foe my kids to learn english. love and humor.like it.

This book, like all of the picture readers in this series, is good for teaching nouns.The story deals with a pet cat who tries to rid himself of a pet dog by running in circles, thereby making the dog too dizzy to find his way back home. However, his scheme boomerangs so the dog helps the cat return home.

La storia sembra un po' ripetitivia (come i disegni) e non molto divertente. Carina l'idea dei disegni nel testo e delle flash card alla fine, ma poteva essere sviluppata meglio

本文の中に絵が挿入されていて、それで言葉を覚える仕掛けになっています。巻末にフラッシュカードが付いています。Ottoは猫ちゃん。今日はペットショップへ新しいえさのボウルを買ってもらう予定。なのに犬が一緒に来ることになってしまって…。犬となかよく出来るのかな？怯えながらも、自分のテリトリーを守り、ワンちゃんと徐々に心を分かち合っていく姿がとても可愛いです。

元々は子供が通っている塾で戦線が話しているのを見かけて、簡単な英語なので私でもやれそうと思い、寝る前の読み聞かせに使っています。

こちらのシリーズを一緒に数冊購入しました。子ども達にもわかりやすい長さ&内容でした！

おちゃめで可愛い、しぐさが想像できる楽しいピクチャーブックです。このシリーズはどれもいいです！２４枚のフラッシュカードが付いています。猫を飼ってはいないのですが、子供たちも大好きな本です。
