This was a book about patterns but the patterns weren’t visual - they were written words. Thus, it wouldn’t be great for small children who are first learning patterns because they wouldn’t be able to visually guess the pattern. I wish their had been more visual clues

Less about cats and more about patterns. Therefore less stars from me. GIVE ME ALL the CATS!

Visually introduce children to different patterns. Help them spot the mistakes and fix the pattern before the fishing trip is ruled a catastrophe.
Covers AB, AAB, ABC, ABCD, ABB patterns.

This could have been done well, but as it is the patterns in the book are not visually clear, nor is the logic sound- cats flicking their tails to one side tips a boat over?
