Pete the Cat: Cavecat Pete - James Dean, James Dean
For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-Cycle

I'm actually not super into Pete the Cat, but I work with a kid who likes the new show as well as dinosaurs so I figured this one would be worth picking up.

While not as "groovy" as some of the previous books, I enjoyed this one overall. The pictures were cute and I liked the easy-going story. I also liked that the updated dino names were used (Apatosaurus, Pterosaur). It was a nice blending of a beloved character with dinosaurs, a topic that is so popular with young readers. The story itself is pretty laid back. Problems arise, but by staying calm, solutions are reached. It was actually pretty soothing. 

Obviously, the story isn't very accurate. All of those dinosaurs weren't necessarily around at the same time or even in the same place. And there definitely weren't housecats around. But there is also a talking cat and carnivores eating salad, so I mean, it's not the biggest deal in the world. 

It's a cute Pete the Cat book with a nice simple story focusing on friendship. Overall, I enjoyed this one.
