Riassunto

Home to Many Cats is a cat centered preschool picture book (great for ages 2 to 8) about a collection of cats who live in a big old house. Each cat has a favorite room in the house and his or her own special cat rhyme. This cat picture book also includes a bonus draw and tell story, where the cat picture book story is repeated in the form of a drawing story, a lively and time-honored storytelling technique which is very easy to use and requires no special materials or experience. Clear instructions and a traceable drawing are included, as well. In the draw and tell story, as the Home to Many Cats tale is retold, certain elements are sketched onto a single sheet of paper, while children look on. These simple elements build up on the drawing until, by the time the story ends, a composite picture of a cat has emerged, much to the children's delight. This form of storytelling is great for parents, teachers and children's librarians. Author Barbara Freedman-De Vito has been creating and using Draw and Tell stories for many years in her work as a children's librarian, freelance storyteller, teacher, and workshop leader. You can find her many draw and tell story collections under the series title of Draw Me a Story, plus find more of her original picture books, all available on Amazon.
