Student Narrative
This book follows the busy day of cats, combining 180 and 90 degree pop-up mechanisms to tell their story! The cats' actions seem to continue after the book is closed; as you close the spreads, the black cat "moves" closer to the window, the calico "reaches" its paw into the fish basin, and the grey tabbies "duck" further under the bushes.
