Summary: Fun to read....
Comment: I bought the book for my seven year old neice Lily while visiting Nantucket Island last summer. She was very excited by the pictures and easy to follow story. The rhymes were fun for her to read. Usually I read to her, but this book was different. She picks it up before bedtime while at sleep-overs. Usually I have to push story time. She looks forward to reading this book because it is a realistic story of a cats travels during the day.

Summary: especially fun for Nantucket fans and cat lovers
Comment: A cute little rhyming story about a cat's adventures as he roams around his home-island of Nantucket, Massachusetts. Text is easy to read and rhythmic because every 2 lines rhyme with each other. The words flow easily, so I disagree with some of the other reviews. Charming painted illustrations with muted jewel tones are fun to look at. The illustrations go across two pages and there is a border on the top and bottom of every page that contains little drawings relevant to the page's content. An example is that the page where the cat jumps on the fishing boat, the border has many different types of boats, from canoes to lobster boats. The page where the grey-haired woman is baking has a border of baking essentials such as butter, flour, eggs, and a measuring cup. The text reads very quickly but there is so much detail in the illustrations that much time can be spent talking about what is on the page and/or making up your own more detailed story to more closely match the illustrations. As our family travels to different places I try to purchase a children's book by a local author that is set in that location. Cat lovers and those who adore Nantucket will especially be attracted to this book.

Summary: Nat Nat the Nantucket Cat
Comment: I've been reading this book to my daughter Kaileigh who is now 2 for over year now, and it is without a DOUBT, HER FAVORITE BOOK....the cat, Mrs. Sprat, and Captain Pat...she knows them all and loves to hear the story over and over. Even the pictures make it fun to talk about what's in the story...boats, fish, clock, flowers...all have helped add to her ability to recognize objects and "tell her own story". WE LOVE Nat Nat!
