This book is so cute! I would love to read this book on the first day of school and then have a discussion of what each child did over the summer. That way the children get to talk more about themselves and get a chance to listen and make connections based on their peers summer adventures!

** spoiler alert ** Splat se remémore ses vacances. S'il affabule beaucoup, les images rétablissent la vérité. Mais surtout, il va se rendre compte de l'importance de la présence de sa petite sœur durant ces vacances, alors qu'il n'a eu de cesse que de la repousser. Un thème récurrent mais traité sans mièvrerie et beaucoup d'humour.

It's show and tell day, whereby Splat sees how much he loves his sister.

Review:Here is silly old Spalt again. This is a great story to read the first couple weeks of school. Splat uses his imagination to think about all the things he could have done over the summer and he kept leaving his little sister out. It's cute when he decides to bring his little sister for show and share. Also I could read the story during a unit of study of family. We would discuss different family memebers and who all lives in our home.Learning Experience:I would have the children tell me who lives in their home. I would graph the results with them using a bar graph. Mom, Dad, siblings, aunts, uncles, grandmas or grandpas (unless someone had something different, we would certainly add it). Which bar is the biggest? That mean it is the most. Talk about least, equal, more and less.

Another book featuring my son's favorite ultra fluffy literary cat..Splat. In this book Splat gets homework on his very first day back to school. This one was cute as we learned all about the adventures Splat had over the summer. I love how he realized how important his sister was during those adventuresAs always my son LOVED the book. While he didn't catch onto certain things like Splat was swimming in swimming pool the whole time and not the ocean with sharks he still was able to get the overall gist of the story. This book was read with my seven year old severely learning disabled son.

Ah, Splat. I remember being so excited about that first day of school. That first day of new opportunities. But then came the first night's homework. Why did Summer have to go by so fast?Splat gets to relive his Summer a bit for his prep work for the next day's Show and Tell. And Splat discovers what really was the best part of his summer. The illustrations -- as always -- are adorable.

Splat the Cat is excited to go back to school after summer, but after his first day of school he's disappointed because he has homework. He has to do show and tell about his summer. He says to his little sister that his summer was full of wonderful things that there is to much to talk about,... without telling the story in the end he realizes out of all the wonderful things he did the most wonderful was his little sister! A wonderful 'sibling' book!

Rob Scotton does it again with this sweet Splat story. This book would be perfect in a classroom for text connection discussions about school, siblings, summer vacation, and using imagination during play. The fabulous artwork just adds to the enjoyment!

Great "back-to-school" read for kindergarteners and first graders. My students really enjoyed the story, and were able to make accurate predictions about how the story would end. A good read for brothers and sisters as well.
