Dear Preschool Teacher,
I would like to know a name of a book that is about a cat
that change colors, because he wants to be different.
Thanks
What's that book?
Click right on the book title to go to amazon.
Dear What's that Book,
Are you thinking of "Have
You Seen My Cat?" by Eric Carle? It isn't about a cat who changes
colors, but it is about different kinds of cats.
For books with a theme about being different, you could also try "Swimmy"
or "Fish
is Fish" both by Leo Lionni.

Dear What's That Book,
I have a book by Jean Feldman called Storytime Friends of Jean Feldman.
One of the stories is Scat the Cat. It is about a cat who is
black. He decides he wants to be a different color so he says
"I'm scat the cat, I'm sassy and fat, And I can change my color
just like that!" He does this several times - changing to green,
then blue, then yellow, then red. He finally decides to change
back to black. He is happy just being himself. If this is the
story I could write send it to you as a complete story. According to
Jean, the source is unknown. I looked on Amazon.com and found a
book "Scat
the Cat" by Sarah Tatler. I'm not sure if it is the
same. Let me know if you want more. (email Annie through ask@preschooleducation.com)
