Meet Libby, the Library Kitty.
Yes, she really did sneak into the school library and returned whenever she was put outside the school gates.




This persistent cat inspired Academic Play’s first book duo.
The Book Cat is the perfect fit for beginning readers. With short words and sentences, children will learn of a cat’s love of books and her sadness about being put out of the library. The story (and happy ending) are inspired by the author’s real life.

The Library Kitty shares the same plot but with a repeated refrain, words selected from first grade reading lists, and so many more details. This picture book is a great tool to demonstrate the benefits of choosing a longer story.
