The Fish and the Cat by Marianne Dubuc - ADVISABLE

The Fish and the Cat by Marianne Dubuc. PICTURE BOOK.  Princeton Architectual Press, 2018. $17. 9781616895051

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K. EL (K-3)- ADVISABLE

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

The Fish and the Cat is a fun, action packed story that will delight even the youngest readers.  This wordless picture book outlines a playful pursuit between a cat and a pet fish.  In the beginning of the book readers will wonder whether the cat is up to mischief.  The ending to this delightful book is sweet and a little unexpected.  The illustrations are simple yet detailed.  The story format allows children to add their own ideas to the mix.

We loved the illustrations as well as the playfulness displayed between cat and fish with activities such as hide and seek and a chasing game. Illustrations are in black and white with fish being displayed in a bright splash of red.
