Books on the theme of ‘Growing’

Katy the Shooting Star by Dame Kelly Holmes, Glyn Walden and Mike Webb

The animals in the park will not play ball games with Katy the cat because she only has one eye. Katy feels left out until she is spotted practising by a coach, who invites her to play in a team. Katy is a big success and all the other animals are very impressed. The children in our setting loved the colourful illustrations and agreed with the other animals at the end of the book, that even though Katy seems a bit different, she is the best at playing basketball.
