"...delightfully engaging while teaching kids lessons about true friendship." --Amazon Reviewer

The Kitten and Friends series will help you teach your child friendship skills, manners and etiquette in a fun and engaging way. Kitten shows, through words and action, how to make a new friend by asking questions, sharing his own likes and dislikes, and trying new things. Kitten always treats his new friends with kindness and respect.

Each book ends with a "Moral of the Story" that reinforces the message of getting along with others who may look and live differently. Your child will learn something about each creature featured in a  Kitten and Friends story. Like the fact that snakes can swim (Kitten & Snake) and Koi like to eat algae (Kitten & Koi).

Each Kitten and Friends story has a companion version in Spanish (Gatito y amigos) for a rich bilingual reading experience. Perfect for a child in a Spanish immersion program or living in a home where both English and Spanish are spoken. The companion Spanish version of Kitten & Squirrel is Gatito y Ardilla.
