What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Honorable Mention, 2016 Foreword INDIES Book Awards Max, Rusty, Ginger, and Tanner assume without question that their new classmate is just like them… a DOG. Guess what? Samantha is NOT a dog, which leads to whole heap of questions: Do you eat mice?Can you walk on a leash? Do you use a litter box or go outside? Can you even wag your tail? But in little time, all the tails in Miss Biscuit’s classroom start wagging, and Samantha is celebrated for the CAT she is, just in time for another new student! There’s A Cat in Our Class! is a kid-friendly exploration of diversity, teaching kids the value of not only accepting but embracing the differences of those around us. Includes a Note to Readers written by Gayle E. Pitman, PhD that discusses how parents, teachers, and other adults can talk with children about diversity in a way that’s meaningful and effective.
