One morning when Pete the Cat is almost late for school he realizes how much his mom and dad do for him and that he has never thanked them. He tries his best to come up with a way to surprise them, but finally turns to his big brother for help. After some sage advice, Pete uses his own talents to create a thoughtful surprise for his parents.
This is a cute story, but not quite as quirky as other books about Pete. I like the message of giving something from the heart but it might be lost on younger readers. The illustrations are simple and bright, and this book has the added appeal of coming with stickers, posters, and little cards. Though that won’t be great for a school library.
