Little guy enjoyed it

This is on the CLEL shortlist for "sing" and honestly, I like it a lot. I find it better than "Kate Writes a Song". I'm excited to use this with children and work on clapping and snapping and following rhythm. I also plan on extending it to breaking down words and syllables.

Kat needs a beat for her song and gets some help from her friends! This was lots of fun to act/sound out.

Great book for storytime!
Since both the board books and the picture books are for a younger audience, I wish that Kat spelled her name Cat instead.
