that fat black cat said
Murr-mee-urrr
in a

way.
I hate that cat.

I loved this book I have never really read a poetry book before and this was good and funny. I also liked that he brought his life into it and really put his opinion into the story. I would recommend this to anybody that is above 9. My favorite poem in the book is love that cat.In the follow-up book to Love That Dog, we follow the character Jack into the next grade level, where Ms. Stretchberry happens to be his teacher again, and Jack has to keep another collection of poems. I noticed a change in maturity level in this collection of Jacks poems, in both language and content. It was fun to see him grow as an individual and as a scholar (it sort of has Bildungsroman vibes). This book also has a great conversation about what qualifies as poetry, which is a conversation I
Hate that Cat by Sharon Creech is a poetry book that is geared towards the intermediate age group. This book is about Jack who hates poetry and cats but in Miss Stretchberrys class, he has to express himself through poetry. He starts to write poetry about how he hates cats and then he starts to write about everything he learns and his problems with his Uncle Bill. I rated this book five stars because I love the poems and it is a great educational poetry book to learn all about the ways to write
Absolutely loved this - a young student writes poems for his English teacher that seem to follow a conversation. An amusing and accurate insight into the child/teen mind regarding language, composition, feeling and messages.
I read this book with one of my students. She and I both preferred this book over the first book, Love That Dog. Jack is at it again with writing poetry to his teacher. He moved up a grade and so did his teacher. However, this book is focused on a cat that he hated, but eventually loved. There are a lot of poems that focus around that cat; just like in the first book with the dog.
You can't really put a review on poetry books, but it was really good, and funny
This was okay but it was worse than the first one. It is almost the same but this one is about a cat! It was a really quick read and wasn't too bad.
