Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes

This book was a class favorite last year and I have been excited to share it with this group as we learn about colors and how to read color words.  Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes is a hilarious book (with a song, of course) that is all about a cat who keeps stepping in things that turn his shoes other colors but does he cry? Goodness, no! He just keeps walking along and singing his song...

Pete the Cat: Rocking in My School Shoes

Pete the Cat


We had a special visit from Pete the Cat after reading his book, Rocking in My School Shoes, today! This book is all about a cool cat who is new to school and doesn't know where anything is.  Instead of getting upset, he keeps walking along and "singing his song."  This book has a great message and it's a blast for the kids to read and sing along with.  Pete sent us on a scavenger hunt throughout the school that helped us to get to know where things are.  Above is a picture of the book (one of my all-time favorites) and the video below the song/narration that goes with the book.  Enjoy!
