About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is experimenting with different roles, struggling to fit in with a new group, or simply full of silliness. It is a perfect choice for those days when your little one insists they are actually a dinosaur, a cat, or a superhero. Ezra Jack Keats uses his signature minimalist style to tell a story about a puppy who decides to spend the day living as a kitten with a friendly litter of felines. This nearly wordless picture book is an invitation to celebrate the pure joy of imaginative play. It gently explores themes of belonging and self-identity without being heavy-handed. Designed for toddlers and preschoolers, it validates the phase of development where children use imitation to understand the world. Parents will appreciate the warm, accepting atmosphere where being 'different' isn't a problem, but rather an opportunity for a fun shared experience.
