Pete is back in New York Times bestselling artist James Dean's I Can Read beginning reader Pete the Cat: A Pet for Pete. When Pete gets a goldfish, Goldie, he decides to paint a picture of his new pet. Word spreads of Pete's cool paintings, and soon everyone wants one. But Pete doesn't have enough time to make one for everyone in town. With a little help from his mom, Pete finds the perfect solution so that everyone can enjoy a Goldie painting and Pete has time to finish his homework!
A and I like Pete the Cat if you can not tell from our reviews on the books. We are so glad our public library has them. In this story Pete has a pet and you wouldn't think a Cat would have a pet fish but Pete does because he is not like other cats. We get a look into the lovely talent that Pete has when he shares his pet with others. Overall an easy read for those that are just getting the hang of reading!
