Fun picture-word recognition throughout and a great message at the end about being yourself.

The message to "just be yourself" is a classic and subsequently pretty predictable from the opening lines, but the preschooler I read this to was giggling the entire time Pete the Cat was dressing up in his increasingly more ridiculous outfit for school, so that seems like a success to me.

Pete the Cat in easy reader form, the pattern of the text reads well, but the moral is a little didactic.

A wonderful character and fun story that shares the importance of being true to yourself. Being yourself is how you draw people to you- not by trying to be who you think they want you to be. Thanks, Pete!
