Bad Kitty
Bad Kitty - Nick Bruel

Bad Kitty is normally a VERY good kitty. But when his owners run out of food for him and offer him delicious and healthy options, Bad Kitty shows where his namesake comes from. He destroys the house, makes racket, and starts annoying everyone he can get his hands on. But once his owners bring his favorite foods back, he has to start making amends for his actions and all seems well. Until they bring a puppy home. This is a wonderful book to introduce students alliterations as each of Bad Kitty's favorite foods consist of them such as "Zebra Zitit" and "Whale Waffles". An activity to engage students with this story is to have them create their own food that Bad Kitty would like using alliterations like the author did and illustrating it. An example could be "Dinosaur Donuts".

Bad Kitty is a take on the typical alphabet story. This is the lively story of a cat that goes berserk four times over and in alphabetical order! This story will keep students laughing while also learning the alphabet. This book is wonderful for your ABCs, but it also has a section that focuses on alliteration. This would be such a fun read-aloud for kindergarten when discussing the alphabet, but it could also be a read-aloud in an upper grade when focusing on alliteration! I would have students come up with their own alliteration and then draw a picture to go along with it.

Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss
Green Eggs and Ham - Dr. Seuss

Dr. Seuss's Green Eggs and Ham is another classic children's book. This book is a fun read for young readers--whether they are just beginning to read or are advanced in their reading. The alliteration and rhyming is an added bonus to an already great book. Readers can familiarize themselves with rhyming and alliteration and these literary devices also keep the book fun and interesting.

 

I would use this book in the classroom during a lesson on literary devices--specifically rhyming. I would ask students to play a rhyming puzzle card game where they must retell the story by matching rhyming word pairs. This would serve as a quick and fun review of the game but also practice rhyming.
