Driscoll, Laura Splat
the Cat: I Scream for Ice Cream Illustrated by Rick Farley and
Robert Eberz Harper, 2015. $16.99
EARLY READER Content: G.
Splat and his school class are going on a
field trip to an ice cream factory. While
there, Splat accidentally bumps a button that causes ice cream to overflow
throughout the factory. The cats lose
their mouse friend, Seymour, so they have to clean up (mostly eat) all the ice
cream until they find him.
Splat the Cat
is adorable, and the illustrations are attractive and bright. There is between 3-5 lines of text per page
and the words see a bit complicated for first time readers. As cute as Splat is, the storyline was a bit
out there and not as well done as other Splat the Cat books. This book didn’t really hold my sons' attention.
EL (K-3)-OPTIONAL. Reviewer, C. Peterson.
