The Cat in the Hat could be interpreted as a good and a bad book. First, this book could be beneficial for children because it is entertaining, and it is easy to keep a child's attention. It also has very good rhyming words and schemes. Even with these good aspects, there are some parts in this story that aren't good for children. In the book, the "Cat in the Hat" comes into their house without welcome, and tells the children to let him stay because he's not going to hurt anything. This could make children think that letting strangers in is okay. In the book, when the children's mom arrives home, they start quickly trying to hide everything and consider lieing to their mom. This could send a bad message to kids, but it could also teach them a lesson. This book could be taken both ways and I think it just depends on how the message is taught to the child.
Ish by Peter Reynolds
In the book "Ish", the main character, Ramon, dosen't believe that he is a good drawer. He loses confidence in himself and it drags his self esteem down. His sister looks at his artwork and tells him many "ishful" things about it. This helps him to feel better about himself. This book was very beneficial, and it will encourage kids to try new things and be very '"ishly". This book proves that "ish" is good enough, and that creativity is a very good thing. I reccomend this book for people of ALL ages. You will get a smile on your face and feel better about yourself, no matter if you are 5 years old, or 80 years old.
