review 1: Splat's friends Spike and Plank come over to play games.Splat's little sister kept spoiling the fun and being mean to Splat. Splat was not winning any games.Splat did not want to play any more so he quit the others and played alone. Plank, Spike, and Little Sis played together.But soon that was not much fun. The group reunites for hide and seek and finally Splat wins.Chosen at the Library by Sean.
review 2: Splat the Cat is an I Can Read level 1 book. As the title implies, the words focus on the -ame ending. Splat is playing games with his friends, and keeps losing. Finally, he wins a game at the end, and realizes that he likes playing with his friends after all.The most important aspect of this book, intentionally, is word choice. The use of the words tame,... more lame, game, and name is relatable for children, as is the concept of playing games and losing. The -ame words are on every page, and are repeated throughout the book to develop fluency. It is an effective technique.If children are creating rhyming books, this book would be a good model. They can learn how to use repeating words to teach their readers. less
