Hate That Cat
Creech, Sharon
ISBN 9780061430923
Hate That Cat is a masterfully told tale written in verse, mostly with very short lines that Jack would approve of. Jack is grieving the loss of his dog. As the novel progresses he slowly opens his heart to the idea of a new cat. Along the way Jack learns about poetry and poets. The reader learns right along with Jack. That is the remarkable aspect of this book, readers are learning about poetry without knowing it, Uncle Bill would be proud! The back of the book has a section containing the poems Sharon Creech refers to in the story. I love this book!
