ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK
Flip-the-page format: Pat the Cat is a unique split page book; as each page turns a different consonant (onset) is introduced, creating a new word with the same short vowel sound (rime) - i.e. Pat, Cat, Hat, Mat.

Rhyming Narrative: Pat the Cat is written in rhyming text in order to help children understand the word formation. The large key word with its changing consonants encourages vocal repetition of the short vowel sound a.

Characters & Speech bubbles: In this story, Pat the cat meets Tat the bat and Nat the rat. Word formation is additionally helped by two cheeky bookworms who, with the use of speech bubbles, comment on the characters and story as it progresses. In understanding the structure of language, speech bubbles are recognized as an important learning device for children in the building of narrative skills.
