Where’s that Cat?

 

Book Reviewed by Tabitha Makumi, Enabling Support Foundation Communications and PR.

If you’ve owned a cat or a dog, then maybe you’ve been involved in a finding mission where you’ve had to make the animal’s sound or guess where the animal would be to find it. Or maybe you’ve seen a “Have you Seen...” flyers out in the public or such calls outs on social media. 

Where’s that Cat is an early children’s book which takes the reader into the world of Neo and his Dad who are on a finding mission of finding their lost cat. 

Call it a hide and seek play or a rescue mission to find Neo’s Cat, if only it had a name. 

Authored by Sam Wilson, designed by Thea Nicole de Clerk, Illustrated by Chenel Ferreira, and edited by Louis Greenberg, Where’s that Cat? will teach children in early learning to name their pets in order to find them when they get lost in the cloud, up in the tree or in the dust bin.

Learning with Kusoma Has Never Gone Wrong

Lessons by Dr. Robert Zenhausern, Enabling Support Foundation CEO & Founder. When a child has learned the meaning of the spoken word, he/she can learn the meaning of the written word.  The key is in the meaning, very hard to define, but summarized in the common statement of “I know what it is.” When educators teach a child a new spoken word, they are connecting meaning to the sound.  In the same way when you teach a new written word, you are connecting meaning to the word.  Reading should be easier because after the spoken word meaning is gone, the print remains. The Kusoma app can be used for basic vocabulary and I expect a sentence app to be available soon. In formal school (PP1 and 2), the child learns the use of LLT. After a lesson of 10 words, those 10 words have many uses which a child can use to read and understand sentences. Furthermore, they can learn to write sentences of their own. And that’s just not it, with learning to lean in on the Kusoma App...
