Mittens (I Can Read! My First Shared Reading)
by Lola M. Schaefer and Susan Kathleen Hartung
back cover says "ideal for sharing with emergent readers", so ages 4-6
This is a pleasant and simple book about a little kitten in its new home. There are probably a number of stripy gray kittens out there named Mittens after this cute kitty.
I also recommend "Pussy Willow", by beloved author Margaret Wise Brown, a Little Golden Book that is out of print. Sadly, it is probably out of print because the word pussy is in the title. "Pussy Willow" is still available from Amazon and through interlibrary loan.
