Pete the Cat: Valentine's Day Is Cool Reviews
-
”There is something cool about every cat.”
Pete!!! :) Pete the Cat discovers just how cool Valentine’s Day is with a little help from his friends and his Mom. Our cool, blue hero sets out to spread the love around.
I will always love Pete’s cute, blue, furry ways, but this visit did not hold the usual bright, brilliant Pete magic for me. The colors, sweet simplicity, and sneakers were all in here, but the tone felt stale to me somehow. I usually want to read a Pete tale again and again, but I just didn’t feel that re-read love and magic with this story.
Still a fun read about the heart-happy day of the year that urges us all to tell the people around us how much we care. -
I miss the awesome songs and the better writing. Sigh. I know kids will love it because they love Pete. But me...not so much.
-
This is a wonderful book for all kids about Valentine's Day and about friendship! It teaches children that our presence is a better gift than even a card!

My 8 year old recently borrowed this book for our local library.
In this installment of Pete the Cat, Pete learns that Valentine's Day is cool. The story starts the day before Valentine's Day. Pete runs into his friend Callie. She asks him if he has finished his Valentine's card yet. Pete says he hasn't because Valentine's is not cool. Callie explains to him that Valentine's Day is the day that we tell people how special they are to use. Pete heads home, and thinks about what Callie told him. By the end of next day, Pete figures out that Valentine's Day is cool.
My 8 year old really enjoyed this story. The text was easy for him to read and understand. Contains colorful illustrations throughout the book. We will be reading more of Pete the Cat. -
In last two days, I have read nine (yep 9) Pete the Cat books. These books are perfect for grands and great-grands to read to young children. The underlying value system seems to be of some cool cats, 1960s-70s style. The color scheme fits in with the the cool cat theme--mostly cool colors with warm undertones. The warm undertones are emotionally attractive.
This book concerns itself with everyday love expressed on Valentine's Day. -
Lovely and well written picture book about Pete the Cat and his friend Callie planning to make cards for Valentine’s Day. Pete forgets a couple of people but he catches up. I read the read aloud book. The narration is just perfect. Love it.

Should read it a day ahead with the kiddos. Gives them some ideas on what they can write their friends. Cute Valentine story.
-
A big hit with preschoolers!

Pete is kind to all the people in his life by making homemade valentines (not store-bought junk). He realizes that everyone likes to be recognized for doing their part.
We love Pete! 5 stars -
I really need to read more Pete The Cat. I really do love Pete The Cat. The only problem I have with this Pete the Cat is Callie is the other characters name. Callie is such a hard name for beginner readers. I think readers need to read difficult names but Callie is a really hard one. It is confusing for an early reader. I tried to explain callie vs. "call" ie and it was certainly a struggle. I just think when writing for early readers that is something to pay attention to. (I know it is super picky and an unneeded criticism.)

Pete the Cat: Valentine's Day is Cool is a great book to use with younger readers. I enjoy how the book uses quotes to make up the story. I think it is a great book for parents to read aloud to their children and to talk about the true meaning behind the quotes.
As a teacher, I think it is a great book to have in a classroom library or to read aloud around Valentine's Day. -
Simple Book about Valentine's Day. Helped my boys understand that they should appreciate all people that are in their lives. They can also simply appreciate someone by showing them what makes them unique.

I watched this as a read-along/audiobook on YouTube.
Pete isn't very into Valentine's day until his mother gives him some good advice that changes how he makes Valentine's cards for his friends. After that, he feels like everyone deserves a card. -
I liked how this book talked about showing love to everyone. Pete’s mom to the crossing guard. But the most important lesson isn’t to make stuff and give gifts but to spend time with people you live, like your friends. Definitely a super cute book.

Pete the cat decides to make Valentines for everyone.
-
I loved this cute little story about Pete and Valentine's Day. The illustrations are cute and the stickers and cards included in the book are an added bonus.
-
I have to say I loved this because I loved the simple message that expressing your love or thanks can make a huge impact and basically costs you nothing.
-
A cute story about a boy kitty named Pete and his friend that shows him the joy of celebrating Valentine's Day.
-
One of my favorites to read aloud to kids!
-
Another great book, Pete thinks Valentine isn't cool until his friend reminds him of the thought behind it. Showing how much you like you friends and family. Great story and pics.
-
This was a nice read. Pete the Cat is always a win. The message is sweet that Valentine's Day is just a good day to tell people how special they are to you.

Read this for storytime on Saturday. Honestly, Pete the Cat is not my jam. This book had posters, stickers, and Valentine's cards your kids can pass out. The overall story is that Pete the Cat doesn't think Valentine's Day is cool, and then his friend Callie tells him why it is cool. Then he wants to write Valentine's for everyone. This book is a good reminder to kids that you can show grattitude and love to all the people who help you throughout your day, like your bus driver, teacher, and crossing guard. They need love too!

Pete doesn’t like Valentine’s Day until his friend Callie explains that it’s about appreciating the special people in your life. Pete decides to make cards. For the boys he thinks of all the special things about them and their interests. For the girls he thinks of...nothing. They just get a heart and “Love, Pete”. Can’t say I’m a fan of that message for young kids. Other than that nothing of interest or excitement happens. Not worth the read if you ask me.
