Six-Dinner Sid - Inga Moore ... don't talk to one another. So it's simple for Sid, a six-dinner cat, to make six different people think he belongs to them. He works hard for his suppers, with six different names and six types of behavior. But when a cough precipitates six visits to the animal hospital, he is found out by the observant vet. His owners agree to make sure he receives only one meal a day, but since Sid is six-dinner cat, he just moves to Pythagoras Place where the neighbors do talk to one another and don't mind sharing dinner with him. Moore's large, colored pencil illustrations are realistic and fill the pages. She is especially strong in portraying individualized characters in the multiethnic neighborhood and the wonderful feline playfulness and insouciance of Sid. The text is rhythmic and the plot is one that children can follow and enjoy. Moore's text and lush illustrations work together to create a book that can be shared one-on-one or with a group. Readers will be happy to have this cat come back again and again.

Once they have found out, they decide that Sid can have only one dinner a night. By this time though, Sid is definitely a 6 dinner a night cat, and knows he can't settle for one. So, what does he do? Not happy...move on. He goes to another street and because the people there all talk to each other and all know they share Sid, they ...more

Six Dinner Sid by Inga Moore This is basically a story about a cat who has six owners, and because of this fact, ends up eating six dinners every day... truly an independent cat. ~~The Story ~~ We first meet Sid on the first page when we see a sleek black cat sitting by the door of a house on a leafy road. This, we learn is Aristotle street, and sid lives at number 1. But hold on and continue onto the next double page spread; this is where we see more of the street and learn that not only does Sid live at number one Aristotle street but also at numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. The idea is that Sid goes from house to house and gets a ...

'Six Dinner Sid' is a delightful and humourous picture book, written by Inga Moore, which tells the story of a cat called Sid and how his life is somewhat complicated to say the least... Sid leaves in a very pretty place called Aristotle Street. He lives at number one. However, unbeknown to his owner at number one, he also lives at number two, and three, four, five and six as well! He manages to live in all six houses with six different owners with no one realising this at all! We are told that the reason that Sid lives in all six houses is so he can have six dinners (evidently one dinner is just not enough!). These dinners vary from fish to lamb to mince to ...
