MONDAY MUSES



My favorite picture book is “Kittens First Full Moon” by Kevin Henkes.  When I was four or five I read it so often that I memorized the whole book.  I remember my mom reading it to me, and then when I got older I started reading it to her. It established a tradition to read books. I always wanted a pet and reading about a kitten made me happy. The book is very imaginative. The cat thinks the moons is a bowl of milk and has series of accidents, while trying to drink it.

Since, the book is set at night; the pictures are all black and white. I really liked the picture in the book. And looking at them again brings back happy memories.

  1. I loved this book! I remember one of my teachers in elementary school reading this to me. Great choice of a book! I liked how at the end you explained why the pictures are black and white. Nice touch!
