Splat the Cat Takes the Cake

by Rob Scotton, Rob Scotton (Illustrator)

Overview

Splat's messy adventures will delight beginning readers in this I Can Read book from New York Times bestselling author-artist Rob Scotton.

Splat loves watching his favorite superhero, Super Cat, on the family TV, but when the set breaks, Splat has no way to watch his cherished cartoon. Splat asks himself, "What would Super Cat do?" and decides to save the day by winning a brand-new TV. The only problem is that winning the TV requires Splat to enter a cake-baking contest . . . which turns out to be a little trickier and stickier than expected. Beginning readers will love this hilarious easy-to-read addition to the Splat series that features the -ake sound.

Splat the Cat Takes the Cake is a Level One I Can Read book, which means it's perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences.
