"Kitten's First Full Moon by Kevin Henkes Caldecott Winner Pre-K- 2nd I thought that Kittens First Full Moon was okay. I thought that it was a great story of determination and learning. The kitten showed determination by trying anything she could think of to get to the bowl of milk, but she (the kitten) just couldn't manage to get to it no matter what she did. I rated this book a 3 because it does have a message to it and it is entertaining, but I'm not sure that I could really use it in the classroom. Art Henkes's illustrations portray the setting really well with a palette of grays, blacks and whites, with pencil and gouache. He uses a lot of pattern and repetition in the art with thick broad lines. The artwork mirrors the repetition in the text, which is also broken into smaller parts for effect. Kids will be drawn to the familiar experience of trial and error and the sense of love and belonging at the end. Text The text is written in patterns, each ending with the statement, "Still, there was the little bowl of mil, just waiting. The text can be easily read for the beginning reader and it is full of sight words. Subject Kitten's First full Moon could be used in a Language Arts lesson to learn sight words. It could also be used to teach a science lesson to introduce Astronomy. The lesson could include the stages of the moon."
