9Cats normally don't like water, but the Cat in the Hat is no normal puss! He's fond of ponds, and in this latest Cat in the Hat's Learning Library book, he takes Sally and Dick on a trip to show them how ponds are fascinating places teeming with life.

From algae to snails, leeches, insects, fish, frogs, newts, turtles, ducks, swans, and more, the Cat explains how all different kinds of plants and animals make their home in and around ponds, as well as examining the difference between complete and incomplete metamorphosis and the various stages of frog development. Ideal for spring and summer reading, this is a beginning reader that will inspire kids to get outside and explore!
