Pete the Cat's Train Trip (My First I Can Read)

The Pete the Cat books are such a great series for children to get into for beginng reading and are definitely worth it.The structure is simple enough that children can pick up basic reading very easy and each novel always has a positive message behind it. As of this review, I can confirm that children of 3 and 4 years of age can read this book and will enjoy it.

The Pete the Cat collection is just terrific. These stories are a little more sophisticated than many books for this age group and the illustrations are engaging and perfectly fit the text on each page. The stories address many things that children worry about and things they enjoy. Very positive and fun books. Both boys and girls love Pete the Cat :)My two-year-old granddaughter loves this series so much, that we also bought a Pete the Cat plush toy. It is one of her favorites.

Great stories for beginner reader and easy to read. Bought several.

My English language learners love Pete the Cat. This is a nice story for emerging early readers, as the illustrations help children to understand any new vocabulary that they don't know. In this book, Pete explores a train and tells his story about travelling to see his grandma. My ESL students really latched on to and understood the concept and had great discussions after they read it. Great little learning tool. Fun illustrations!

The media could not be loaded.  Follow Pete on a train exploration while on his way to see his grandma. This book has adorable art work, and introduces time. Perfect for gifting and reading along with your child. This book reminded me how much I loved going to see my grandma when I was little. Absolutely love this book.

The Pete-the-Cat books in general are our favorites in the "My First Level, I Can Read!" series. Pete may not be as well known as Little Critter, Biscuit, Fancy Nancy, or the Berenstain Bears, but he has an antic hip vibe that bests those staid franchise bedrocks.Unlike some of the "I Can Read" books, the Pete books usually have a complete story, with a clear beginning, a couple of developments in the middle, and then a satisfying ending. I like that even in very early readers. What happens makes sense and the endings are satisfying. Each fully illustrated page has two sentences, running from four to seven words each. That's a nice length and a good and fair challenge for a little starting reader. The drawings fully support the text, and while they look a bit amateurish at first the characters are actually expressive and presented effectively.Many of the other Pete books have a mild message, (be yourself, do your best), but this one is mostly just a train adventure story that emphasizes curiosity, being friendly, and having new experiences. For a relatively short pre-chapter book Pete's encounters on the train are pretty varied and wide ranging.So, this is one of the few early readers books that strikes me as "set worthy" and we've been happy to collect them all over time. The paperback versions are particularly good value.

Pete the cat has another great adventure and kids love reading about his wonderful train ride. This book is perfect for the beginning reader and helps build their skills.

My preK kid loves Pete the Cat. Pete gets to explore riding on a train, and the story is easy enough for 3-5 year-olds to follow and abort enough to keep their attention.

Such a fun, cute book! My kids love the show too!! Thank you so much! We love it. Great for when you need just a quick little book...or when you have to read 5 stories at bedtime when your kids say they have been soooo good all day lol

Nice book and give the idea n new vocabulary to your younger ones

Lindo livro, usado para alfabetização de crianças. Não é prime, acredito que a criança deva começar a ler por um livro mais simples.

Pete the Cat. Bellissimo.

Great gift for a child
