Big Cat Pepper by Elizath Partridge - OPTIONAL


Partridge, Elizabeth. Big Cat Pepper.

PreK/EL (PreK-K). OPTIONAL.

A boy and his cat, Big Cat Pepper, have been best friends since he was a kitten. Lately, however, Pepper hasn’t been acting like himself. He won’t eat, drink, or purr. When Pepper dies one day, the boy feels sad and misses his cat deeply. Will the boy find peace and come to acceptance about his lost best friend?

An endearing book that is easy to read and understand for young children. The pictures are well done a complement that book well. Although this book is rather hard subject to read about, this book would be good for any child that is dealing with the loss of a beloved pet or loved one.
