They all saw a cat point of view5/8/2023 ![]() ![]() Highly recommended for reading aloud in groups because it offers a perfect opportunity to for children to realize that the world is different for every person and thing. As children age the different vision capabilities of animals and people can be discussed (such as color blindness), as well as the way our size and vantage point skew images. WE ALL SAW A CAT offers a wonderful way to discuss the world around a young reader, and how we all see things differently depending on our perspective, our imagination, our history and more. A cat walks through the pages and is seen by creatures big and small - he simply looks like a cat (as we are used to perceiving them) to a child, but to a very small fish he is all big, yellow eyes magnified and distorted by the water, to a dog he’s long and lean as he sneaks quietly by, to a mouse he appears red, and full of fangs - a vision of danger and fear, and to a bird he is only a striped back and red collar as seen from above. Young readers will learn that seeing is subjective in this imaginative, beautifully illustrated picture book from Brendan Wenzel. ![]()
