You can listen to a podcast reading of this delightful poem written by Herbert Mitgang.
I have added the Italian words to this Wordle. Can you guess what the poem is about??

A Fluffy Shape Collage
I’ve always wondered how such collages have been made and now I know how!! You simply download Shape Collage, a free image collage making site, and hey presto, you can create fabulous collages in all different shapes within seconds!! The cat shape you can see at the top consists of lots of photos of Fluffy!! I just chose the cat shape option below.
I found out about Shape Collage from Ozge Karaoglu‘s blog post called A Techie Valentine’s Day
You can learn how to create a Shape Collage by viewing the video below.
Two Fluffy Cartoon Sites
CarToon Maker – Little Mouse
Young learners can have fun building their own cartoons from CarToon Maker – Little Mouse. The cartoon you see above was created easily in moments. Will Fluffy actually catch this cheeky little mouse, I wonder?
My StoryMaker
My StoryMaker by Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh is another cartoon making site I came across today via Comics in My Classroom on Scoop.it This site looks fun to use. You can download a copy of your book from the library, and also print a copy of your book, and that is a nice feature.
For more ideas and links on Comics and Cartoons, please refer to my Scoop.it curation site on Comics and Cartoons.
A Fluffy Mosaic
A selection of my favourite Fluffy images assembled together in a mosaic, easily created with Big Huge Labs Mosaic Maker.
Three Little Kittens – Podcast
The lovely nursery rhyme Three Little Kittens has been recorded using Audacity and then added to Podbean. My niece has read this delightful rhyme beautifully!
Olympic Cats!
Fluffy is delighted to welcome two guests to his blog, who have created a picture and a poem as a special school project for the Olympics later this year. Below you can view a delightful picture of a cat, drawn by my nine-year-old niece.
My niece Lidiana has made a short podcast below:
My young nephew chose to write a poem about his cat, called Nelly. I think it’s lovely.
I am very proud of my niece and nephew.
Fluffy is thrilled to host their creations on his blog today.
