Functional; Moderately enjoyable.Reviewed in the United States on March 13, 2020These books are extremely effective, because my oldest son likes them quite a bit.I myself do not enjoy them, however that is not the point.They have a decent rhyme scheme and repeated readings help him start to internalize certain phonic patterns.They are also precisely long enough.Verdict: Recommended.

Splat is a cat that gets into adventures with his friend a mouse. In this story he leaves with his family for a trip to the ocean. His grandpa asks him to bring back a shell. So all through the story he goes in search of a shell he can bring back... He gets very frustrated because first he helps his family do various things when they first get there. But then when he does start looking he can't find one that hasn't been broken. He follows a bird that is dropping shells! This is a fun story you and your child will enjoy together as you follow his adventure of how he did find a shell for show and tell and for his Grandpa! This book is also a good "S" book or even at times a tongue twister. A very nice one for beginning readers :)

Splat the Cat is going to the beach and wants to get a shell for his grandfather. And of course, mishaps occur while looking for a shell. Splat has several books that tell of his misadventures with his friend Seymour. Beginning readers will love these books because there is not much text on each page and they will also enjoy the humor.

The story was ok, but it seemed to move too quickly to the appearance of the whale in order to have a clever rhyme.
