It is about the adventures of Cookie the cat who gets into trouble each day of the week at his house. It is also good for predictng what will happen on the next day and sharing and talking about each pages illustrations. Another plus is sequencing the days of the week. What a fun way to learn them. Follow up with an activity about what happens on the days of the week at your house. Susan Another funny one is “Cookies Week”.

We too love My cat likes to hide in boxes and There are cats in this book. However, the cat book that is J's favourite is one I really don't like myself! - Cats Sleep Anywhere by Eleanor Farjeon illustrated by Anne Mortimer - I find the illustrations too twee, but for some reason J ADORES them... we even have this book in both Dutch and English!
