Cat Knit by Jacob Grant (2016)
An adorably expressive cat forms a complicated friendship
with a ball of yarn. When Cat’s transforms Yarn by knitting it into a cat
sweater, Cat feels betrayed by his friend. Since snow/cold features
predominately in this title, it will work with those themes as well. With
large, clear illustrations and just a few words on a page, this title should
fit well into most storytimes. Note: Jacob Grant is also the author of Scaredy Kate, another Everyday Diversity favorite of mine.
Themes/topics: cats, clothing, yarn/knitting, friendship,
funny, mix-ups, snow
Sample text from first two spreads:
Cat and Girl had
always been good friends.
One day, Girl
brought home a colorfull new guest. His name was Yarn.
