Honors:
Pete the Cat is wearing his favorite shirt—the one with the four totally groovy buttons. But when one falls off, does Pete cry? Goodness no! He just keeps on singing his song—after all, what could be groovier than three groovy buttons? Count down with Pete in this rocking new story from the creators of the bestselling Pete the Cat books.
How much fun! We are always on the search for fun and educational reads and Pete the Cat definitely fits both those categories. I had heard the name before but had not ever experienced one of his adventures and I’m quite delighted with …His Four Groovy Buttons and will be looking for the former and future adventures as well. What could be better than to combine fun, rhymes, music and mathematics for kids?!

James Dean knew he had found something special when he painted Pete, a black kitten he discovered in a cage at the animal shelter. James lives with his wife, Kim, also an artist, and five cats (Bob, Frida, Yoko, Audrey, and Marilyn). You can visit him online at www.petethecat.com.
(No spam, I promise. Just creative madness ramblings, reviews and life-stories, with quilting and cross stitch inspiration in between!)
