Abstract
For parents wanting their children to get a head start in reading, it can be a challenge to find something that will maintain their attention. Now, learning to read can become a fun and enter- taining thing to do with the help of an extraordinary cat. Join Cleo-cat-tra as she brings reading to life in the charming picture book Rhymes and Times with Cleo-cat-tra by Lucy T. Geringer and illustrated by Bernardita Cox Kollock. Rhymes and Times of Cleo-cat-tra is a picture book about a special cat named Cleo-cat-tra. She is not an ordinary cat, as she cleverly rhymes about animals, people, and things she encounters inside and outside her house. The rhymes are silly which make learning a fun and creative pro- cess for kids and for parents to share. This delightful story makes use of colorful illustrations to heighten a child's imagination. Its simple text and brief sentences make reading easy for the early reader. It is also a great book for children who are learning English and can be enjoyed both at home and in school through lively interactive discussions between students and teachers. It is a book for all ages.
