This book's concept centres on the simple fact that many English words are composed with other words integrated into them. I’m not referring to compound words, but words with other words hidden in them, such as HAT in THAT, or CAT in CATCH. Catch the Cat is a fun and surprisingly educational book which stimulates learning through the search for words within words. It incorporates stories, rhymes and tongue twisters to create fun and lively word combinations that children love to find and say. It is the second book in the series The Hat in That.

As a parent I had a fantastic experience teaching my young child to read and write. On many occasions, while teaching him, I used a method that worked to help him learn and compose many words very quickly. As a result of this experience the idea for this children’s book arose. The first book created was The Hat in That, and Catch the Cat is now the second book of the series. The book’s concept centres on the simple fact that many English words are composed with other words integrated into them. I’m not referring to compound words, but words with other words hidden in them, such as HAT in THAT, or CAT in CATCH. It’s a simple concept and it doesn’t work for all words in the English language, but it does work for many. In this book, Catch the CAT, I have carefully selected another 25 words which I’ve used to create fun and lively word rhymes, short stories and tongue twisters, which children just love to say and sing.
