Cat learns colors and meets new friends! This Level C book is perfect for kindergarteners to read on their own.

Cat likes red.
Red is nice.
Cat likes yellow.
Yellow is nice.

Cat meets a red ladybug. Turn the page: Cat and Cat's new friend are outdoors in an all-red scene, chock full of details. Cat meets more friends--including a green lizard, a blue fish, and a yellow bee.

Your new reader will build skills, gain confidence, and have fun too!

This book has been officially leveled by using the F & P Text Level Gradient(TM) Leveling System.

For readers who've mastered basic sight words, Level C books feature slightly longer sentences and a wider range of high-frequency words than Level B books. Level C books are suitable for mid-to-late kindergarten readers. When Level C is mastered, follow up with Level D.

I Like to Read: The award-winning I Like to Read series features guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas & Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators--including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors--create original, high-quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read again and again with their parents, teachers or on their own!
Christopher Russo has participated in juried exhibitions including MoCCA (Museum of Comics and Cartoon Art) Fest, RIPE (Rhode Island Print Expo), and MICE (Massachusetts Independent Comics Expo), where he has exhibited and sold original comics, prints, posters, and merchandise. He has created black and white interior illustrations for two novels, The Naked Mole Rat Chronicles by Mary Amato and Kevin Keeps Up by Ann Whitehead Nagda. Christopher holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Design Communications from Pratt Institute.
★ "Newly independent readers will enjoy the straightforward story in this book, as well as the attention-grabbing illustrations. A highly recommended addition to library collections for beginning readers."—School Library Journal, Starred Review

"Comics creator Russo’s first children’s book makes good use of his expressive character-design skills. . . . A colorful start for beginning readers."—Kirkus Reviews
