I could not finish the book, don get me wrong it is a great book about a boy over coming his fear of dogs. I just know the dog is going to die. It is a heart warming story to read to young kids. ( ) This is one of those books more of a time back in the day. Stuff like Kitty starving, the dad just up and moving them all, etc is just a few of the things that scream this book is old. In this day and age most of the events would not happen because people feed and tend to strays, care for them, etc. Kitty starving isn't appropriate for kids, nor is what comes later, best read to kids at bedtime if you want some harsh reality and questions that keep you up at night. Reads like it's all from the kid's POV/writing level. I don't recommend despite it being a semi-classic. A Dog Called Kitty, is about a stray dog that finds his way into a young boy's life. The boy had been previously attacked by a dog causing him to have a great fear of them. However, while Kitty is attacked by a group of dogs, the boy overcomes his fear, and soon discovers his new best friend. This book is a great way to show students the bond animals and humans can form. It also teaches them that your fears do not have to remain your fears. A key element of this story is the emotional factor. The reader can both empathize as well as sympathize with the struggles the young boy faces during his encounters with Kitty. The tragic death of Kitty also shows young readers that endings do not always have to "happy" or what you expect them to be. I would use this book to lead into a discussion about overcoming obstacles. The students can write about their fears, why they have them, and ways to move past them. It can also be used to have students discuss their own pets, where/when they got them, and the love they share. Summary: In this book a puppy finds it's way onto a farm where a little boy, who is afraid of dogs, lives. The puppy is slowly starving due to lack of food so its up to the boy to overcome his fear of dogs and maybe discover his new best friend. Personal Reaction: This story is very touching and sweet in it shows the journey of someone overcoming their fears to help another. Classroom Extension Ideas: 1. Have the students Draw a picture of something they are afraid of and write a short reason as to why. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
