A puppy pretends to be a kitten for a whole day. He plays whatever the kittens usually play. When the day is finished and his mother comes to get him, he ask the kitten to pretend to be puppies next time.
This is a level one book. It is an easy read for beginners and tells how friends play together. The illustrations are wonderfully used to help tell the story. (

Short easy book most kids can read on their own. A puppy pretends to be a kitten for a day.

Kitten for a Day describes the adventures of a dog who joins a group of kittens in their daily activites. Rich illustrations bring the story to life, as the dog attempts to acquire the habits of the kittens. This book is charming, and with its simple text and life like illustrations, a great starter book for young children.
