Books with title The Cat who Thought He Was a Tiger

Sketch, The Cat Who Thought He Was A Dog is a children's book about being different and not only being okay with it--but feeling great about it! Since the beginning Little Sketch has always lived with dogs, in fact, he is absolutely certain he is a dog. (The trouble is, he is actually a cat!) In this engaging story, young readers meet the three dogs that form part of Little Sketch’s family, and the wise Mr. Tree, who helps Little Sketch understand why it’s great to be different. And the story begins at the beginning of course: Sketch has always wanted to be a dog but he just can’t howl or growl like his brothers and he wants to know why. Together the four of them are playing in the forest one day when Little Sketch meets a wise old tree who helps him find the truths about being a cat. He teaches him how to focus on his strengths and to realize that it’s great to be different. With the help of the great, old Mr. Tree, Sketch begins to discover and feel confident in his own strengths, like using his claws to climb higher through the branches until he reaches a spot where he can see everything around him below.Read an Excerpt from Page One:Ever since he could remember, Sketch had lived amongst dogs. There were three of them and Sketch was the fourth. Once he had tried to bark like his brothers but only a strange, high-pitched sound had come out and they had all looked at him. He had felt really embarrassed. After that time, he’d always thought there was something wrong with him, even though his brothers treated him well, as one of their own.Everyone has a favorite brother, and Sketch’s favorite was Krypto, a huge boxer dog who liked to lick a lot. When Sketch was only a tiny kitten, Krypto had watched over him like a proud father, following him around everywhere, making sure he didn’t get into too much trouble, keeping him from falling off the balcony, even letting him eat from his own bowl. They drank water together every morning too.Reader Reviews:“This earth-friendly story encourages young readers to see Nature differently, with more care, and at the same time, to learn about their strengths and why being different is great.
