Dog’s nap is interrupted by an unexpected new friend! From two-time Theodor Seuss Geisel Honoree Paul Meisel, this Level C story is perfect for kindergarteners to read on their own.

What is that?
It is fast.
It is gone.

Dog is woken up from a nap by a surprising new visitor–Rat! But Dog soon realizes that Rat is more like him than he thought. They both love to play! Easy-to-read text and fun pictures follow Dog and Rat becoming fast friends. Perfect for kindergarteners and first graders to read on their own.

A companion to his 2018 Theodor Seuss Geisel Honor Book, I See a Cat, Paul Meisel brings young readers a new adventure with beloved Dog and a new pet friend.

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

For readers who have 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.

The award-winning I Like to Read® series focuses on guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas and 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!
