The Cat in the Hat

The Cat in the Hat pairs the story with narrated highlighting and early-reading activities.

Our take

Consider for shared reading with a beginning reader

Tappable vocabulary and phonics activities provide practice within the book.

Keep in mind: Kindergarten alignment and award claims do not guarantee literacy gains; this is one interactive title, not a complete reading curriculum.

What you can do

  • Read independently or with narration
  • Explore tapped words/pictures
  • Try spelling/rhyme activities and parent reading statistics

Good for

  • Families discussing the story together

Consider alternatives for

  • Users expecting a comprehensive reading assessment

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 12.0.
  • Kindergarten alignment and award claims do not guarantee literacy gains; this is one interactive title, not a complete reading curriculum.

Privacy & permissions

Parent reading statistics concern a child’s activity; inspect sharing and device permissions before use.
