A playful tale about homonyms and the power of perspective
Told through the repetition of two sounds, this delightful pirate adventure is also a clever lesson on homonyms: words that sound the same, or are spelled the same, but have different meanings.
A swashbuckling tabby and their crabby first mate are enjoying a day on the water when--Eye! Sea!--a wave crashes against their ship and something gets in the captain's eye. The two companions visit the optometrist, where the cat reads out the letters I and C during an eye test. The eye doctor explains, Eye. See? and teaches the pirate how to put on an eyepatch. By the end of the book, readers will shout I see! as it's revealed that the whole story was part of a child's bathtub playtime.
This charming ode to language and imagination is illustrated in Ashley Barron's iconic cut-paper collage artwork. Read aloud, it will spark conversation and exclamation as young kids discover the whimsy of word play.
