Reviews for Pete the Cat

[debicates · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

Is this a five star book? If your first grade granddaughter calls you by video phone and reads it aloud to you for her school's annual Read-A-Thon, it is!

She also read three other Pete the Cat books to me. She has to read 600 pages by April 2nd and she wants to read 1000 pages so she can win the competition.

She doesn't know it, but if she reads 1000 pages--or even the minimum 600 pages--she will win the pleasure and skills of growing as a reader.

She'll call me again tomorrow night. :)

Pete the Cat is excited! He is going scuba diving. Captain Joe says he might see a seahorse. Pete hopes he gets to see a seahorse because he has never seen one before.

Down he goes. Pete sees a swordfish, a stingray, a school of fish, a blowfish, an octopus, a crab, an eel, a jellyfish, a whale, and a sea turtle.

But where is the seahorse?

=========

This I Can Read book uses basic language, word repetition, and illustrations to help young emergent readers find success in reading. As with all My First books in this series, this is a book designed for shared reading with the young reader and an adult.

Delightful illustrations, a well-known and beloved character young readers will instantly recognize, and a clever story all work together to make this a perfect early reader selection.

Highly recommended, especially for fans of Pete the Cat.
