Mr. Putter & Tabby Catch the Cold: A Cozy Early Reader for Children (Ages 6-9)

Another fun adventure with Mr. Putter and his fine cat, Tabby! This time, Mr. Putter gets sick and Ms. Teaberry and Zeke help him get better. Many fun memories in between. Love all their stories!

I used these as readers for my late 1st grader/early 2nd grader. I love how many series Cynthia Rylant has done on different reading levels, and Mr. Putter and Tabby were as fun as the others we have used. I have found that my children learn to read better when they love the characters, and they always love Cynthia Rylant's characters. In these books, the characters are cautious Mr. Putter, his very sanguine neighbor Mrs. Teaberry, and their pets, which suit them each perfectly. Each story is gentle and fun. Mr. Putter grits his teeth and goes with Mrs. Teaberry's newest wild scheme, her dog Zeke is crazy, his cat Tabby wants to rest, and Mrs. Teaberry bakes him wonderful goodies. They are kind to each other, and he reminisces about boyhood days... really sweet stories. My son told me when we were going through all of these that reading was his favorite time of day.If you haven't delved into Cynthia Rylant's many series for many reading levels, you can do a google search to figure out which one might work best for where your child's skill level is.

Somewhere, I have the hardcover of this book. However, I couldn't find it this winter, when I wanted to read it to my grandsons' classes. I read this book at school, every year. So, I had to purchase this copy to make sure I had it. I love reading Mr. Putter's words with a stuffed-up nose sound, so the kids are totally entertained by the book. It is so easy to follow along, and the kids have great fun with the pictures, too. This is one of my very favorite books to read to a classroom.

Bought these for my grandson. He loves to read them. They have some pictures. He loves the cat Tabby!

My daughter is obsessed with books where I have to fake sneeze when reading them. This one written by one of our favorite authors is charming and cozy and just the right amount of sneezes ;) We have fallen for Mr. Putter and Tabby and own all the books. Cynthia Rylant does not disappoint.

My 6-year-old daughter loves the Mr. Putter and Tabby books... They're so colorful and humorous... There's nothing like a child being encouraged to read because the content of the book is so entertaining! We have several in the series and are so happy with being able to have a fun collection from which she can pick and choose for any occasion.....like Mr. Putter and Tabby Catch the Cold, for example... Whenever someone in the family isn't feeling well, out comes this story for her to share with whomever is in need... After a while, Mr. Putter, Tabby, Mrs. Teaberry and Zeke all start to feel like family :)

My daughter loves the Mr. Putter series of books and this is one of her favorites. The story is wonderful and is a good way to introduce early readers to chapter books. The only reason I don't give it 5 stars is because the formatting on the Kindle version is a bit awkward.

The story is really good, my son enjoyed it, but the download is very choppy. The pages repeat themselves and overlap.

Love Mr. Putter, Tabby, and Cynthia Rylant!

他にいくつかシリーズがあるみたいなのですが、現時点ではKindle版はこれだけでした。（なるべくKindleで読みたいので同シリーズの他の本がPBだけなのが残念！）すごくかわいいストーリーで読んでいてい癒されました。風邪をひいたときの特別感を味わいたいMr. Putterがかわいいです。TeddyもZakeもMrs Teaberryも優しいキャラクターで心が温かくなる作品です。自分も風邪を引いたらこんな風にしてもらえたら嬉しいと読みながら思いました。

Mr.Putterが風邪をひいてしまいます。子供の頃はお母さんが暖かいスープやミントティーを持って来てくれてベッドで冒険小説を読んで・・と、結構風邪も好きだったのですが今では歳をとって世話をしてくれる人もなく辛い。そこへお隣のMes.Teaberryが愛犬Zekeを送って来て色々と面倒を見てくれます。おいしいチキンスープに勇敢な犬のお話でこの風邪は最高なものになりました。

風邪をひいてしまったPutterさん、少し具合がよくなったところで冒険の本を読みおわってみんなで寝ているシーンはとてもあったかそうで、幸せそうで見ているだけで優しい気持ちになりました。残念なのはCDの発売が無いことです。音源はあるのですから日本でも扱ってください〜〜！！できれば６話位まとめて一枚で！よろしくお願いします。
