Black Cat, White Cat by Silvia Borando- ADVISABLE

Borando, Silvia. Black Cat, White Cat, PICTURE BOOK. Minibombo, 2014. $14.00. Black Cat is only ever awake during the day. White Cat is only awake during the night. When they each decide to explore the other’s time of day, they become friends and learn all about what makes day and night special. They become so inseparable in fact that they have some very cute, cuddly, orange kittens. This book is done all in black and white until the end in which you see the orange kittens. The play on illustrations with the colors is done really well and it’s fun to see the differences in night and day with the absence or presence of the different colors. A simple book, but not boring. PRE-K, EL (K-3)-ADVISABLE. Reviewed by Shay, School Librarian
