The Cat at Night

We love books in our family, so I thought it would be a fun addition to our homeschool blog to discuss some of what we are reading and offer some mini reviews. Our most recent book love is The Cat at Night by Dahlov Ipcar.

The Cat at Night became an instant favorite for us. Bright, colorful, and beautifully illustrated pages tell the story of a cat's nighttime adventures through city and countryside. Fun and informative, the book gives readers a few insights into the mysterious noctournal nature of cats and why the darkness is not a problem for them. Perfect for a bedtime story to read to your children, or to have them read to you!

Disclaimer

My views on traditional schooling aren't rosy, and I express my opinions on the topic regularly. That said, I don't berate parents who choose that path by choice or out of necessity. My opinions may be strong, but I will still do my best to respect yours. I believe parents should be supportive of one another, not competitive. Competition is not a goal of my blog; these are merely my opinions and experiences. The traditional public education system is broken, not the teachers, the parents, or the children.

Reezle is 10 years old, and the artist and birdwatcher of the family. Her creative and curious mind is always working on some exciting new project, and her compassion for others is absolutely inspiring. She is in 4th grade, and her favorite subjects are science, history, and art. She wants to be a nutritionist when she grows up so she can help people prevent and reverse diseases. She plans to create a small organic farm and share some of the foods at her job as part of her “nutrition therapy” plan. Reezle also loves animals, especially cats and horses, and is always looking for ways to be involved with helping them.
