Dean, James. Pete the
Cat: Trick or Pete. Harper Festival, 2017. $6.99.
Content: G. PICTURE BOOK.
Pete the Cat is ready to trick or treat, he has his
superhero costume on. He’s a little
scared, but his dad says not worry, that they have a flashlight. So, when they see a spooky shadow, they shine
the flashlight and it’s only an owl. The
scary shape in the yard is just a scarecrow. The glowing faces are just
jack-o-lanterns. And the ghost is really
grandma. Happy Halloween!
This story is perfect for a lift-the-flap book. Every time Pete thinks something is scary,
they shine the light on it (lift-the-flap) and see that there is no reason to
be scared. A great way to help children understand
that Halloween decorations and costumes are just for fun and they don’t have to
be scared of them.
Pre-K, EL-ADVISABLE.
