Nathalie’s Review (at age 8)
This is a story of a cat who drew a picture of his father. His father liked it and bought him a box of paints. The little cat used the paints to draw another picture of his father with a green chin, red nose and blue ears. His father did not like this one. The little cat said, “Let me fix that.” So he took the paints and painted another picture, this time on the wall. His father was very angry and gave him another present – this time a big pot of white paint – so that he could paint the wall white again.
This was an easy book to read, with very few words on each page. About ten words. There were only a few words I didn’t understand. I liked the book and found it funny. It is the first book in a series of Le Fils Du Chat which means The Cat’s Son.

Son papa aime mieux le premier, parce que dans le deuxième, son nez est rouge, ses oreilles sont bleues et son menton est vert. Le petit chat décide d’arranger ça et d’ajouter des habits à son papa, en dessinant sur le mur. Son papa est très fâché …
J’ai aimé les illustrations et j’ai appris un nouveau mot – Chouette ! Ce qui veut dire Cool !
