"Reviewed By Chad Richins for Readers' Favorite

The Mat and the Cat by Kelley M Likes is a playful and engaging book that introduces
children to the world of phonics in a fun way. The book is designed for emergent
readers in Pre-K and Kindergarten, ages 4-6, and includes colorful illustrations by
Lauren Blunck. The story features a "not-flat mat" that goes on an adventure. The
book also includes 15 flashcards and aims to help children learn and practice words
with the "-at" ending. The Mat and the Cat has a Guided Reading Level of D and a
Lexile Level of 110L. It is a great choice for both home and classroom settings.

The concept of The Mat and the Cat is delightful and perfectly suited for a young
audience. The idea of a mat as the main character is unexpected and imaginative,
and adds a whimsical charm to the story. The story is designed to maintain a
lighthearted and educational tone that young readers will enjoy. The pace is gentle
and appropriate for the target age group. The use of rhythm and repetition ensures
that young readers grasp the lessons and enjoy them as they practice with their
flashcards. The inclusion of flashcards is a thoughtful touch, adding an interactive
element that complements the story's phonics focus. The book's appeal lies in its
humor and simplicity, making it an excellent tool for early literacy. The Mat and the
Cat by Kelley M Likes is a solid choice for introducing children to reading engagingly."
