Pete the Cat and the Treasure Map Reviews


  • Jasmine from How Useful It Is

    Read for my toddler’s bedtime. Pete the cat has a ship and he’s taking his crew on an adventure. A treasure map was delivered to him. In the ocean, he ran into trouble but with Pete’s quick thinking, trouble were solved. Then land arrived and they were greeted with treasures.

    Read from kindle unlimited.

    Cute

    Easy for a new reader to read and sound out plenty of the words. It was also a good one because my son likes pirates!

  • Celia Buell

    Pete the Cat is always a fun time. I remember reading it with elementary kids I tutored through a high school program, and I know it's popular with children.

    What also helped was that we're reading
    Treasure Island as well, so this tied in nicely with the idea of treasure hunting and ships, and I was able to ask questions that related to both books. I hope this book might have furthered their understanding of the much longer
    Treasure Island and some of the terms used there as well.

    This book was very cute and I'm glad it's free on Amazon Prime. I'll need to remember to look at Prime for more popular kids' books, as I already have a student account and don't use it enough. This was a good find.

    I really enjoyed this Pete the Cat book. I love the messages that are portrayed through the characters' actions, thoughts, & feelings.

  • Cynda

    In the last 2 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 cars, 1960s-70s. The color scheme fits in with the cool cat theme--mostly cool colors with warm undertones. The warm undertones are attractive.

    This treasure map book with it's more complicated storyline is busy in its graphics. I wish that James Dean had written a simplified version of his story. The huge octopus/sea monster was under-utilized and the music-making over-utilized. This is pass for me.

  • Travis Laduke

    My 8 year old son enjoyed reading it.

    Love all Pete the Cat books. This one is cute too and easy to read for my 8 year old.

  • Angieleigh

    This is a cute story about Pete and his friends following a map to a treasure island and encounter a sea "monster" (an octopus) who likes to play the drums.

    The illustrations are vivid and the story is entertaining and short enough to hold a child's attention.

  • Megan

    My 4 and 7 year old love these books!

    My 4 and 7 year old both love all of these books! They were so excited to see this newest one.

  • Maddie Freguia

    Pete the Cat has proven time and time again to be a children's favorite when it comes to reoccurring characters in books. The preschool that I work at reads primarily Pete the Cat stories and the kids, who very young in age, love them! I have also found that Pete has become sort of an icon on his own to young kids because in my practicum classroom right now, whenever something goes wrong or someone makes a mistake, the teacher simply says, "Well, what would Pete the Cat say?' and the whole class will respond with "It's all good." I like that a lot because I think that is something that doesn't always get taught to kids right away, and then they dont develop the skills that they need to interact with other people and make friends. Pete the Cat will be popular for a long time because of books like this, the character of Pete can be put in almost any situation and there is an immediately new and exciting story for kids to read. I rated this book 4/5 stars because I wanted it to have a high rating for all of the reasons I have previously stated, but this particular Pete the Cat book was not my favorite because I felt that it wasn't as creative as the other stories, so I simply took away one star. But overall, a really great book and an excellent addition to the Pete the Cat saga.

    When Captain Pete discovers a treasure map, he knows that X marks the spot where he will find the treasure. So he and his crew go sailing off to find the treasure. But a sea monster is blocking the way. Can Pete calm him with his guitar playing?

    When a great storm comes, Pete’s sea monster friend comes to help Pete and his crew. But will they find the treasure?

    =========

    Delightful illustrations, a well-known and beloved character young readers will instantly recognize, and a clever story all work together to make this a perfect selection for young readers. The story’s celebration of music and its message of helping others is sure to resonate with young readers.

    Young readers ages four through eight, preschool through third grade are the targeted audience for this delightful tale. With word repetition, sight words, and simple sentences, the older readers may be able to read this story independently.

    Highly recommended, especially for fans of Pete the Cat.

    Pete the Cat and the Treasure Map
    (children's book, fiction, adventure, animal stories, pirates, friendship and sharing)

    Pete the Cat and the Treasure Map by James Dean is an adventure story in which Pete the Cat and his friends go looking for pirate treasure. Along the way, they have run-ins with a sea monster, bad weather, and a grumpy toad. At the end of the story, Pete the Cat and his friends learn an important lesson about sharing. Fun story!

    If you are a teacher, Pete the Cat and the Treasure map would be a good book for your language arts lessons about the adventure genre and story elements (character, setting, problem, and solution).

    Best for elementary school students. Whole group, small group, and independent reading.

    I think kids aged 4-8 will love this book for different reasons. Kiddos in the younger ages will enjoy hearing this story every night as a bedtime story. The kids that are older will like to team read and then read to you. Every boy loves pirates and some girls, too. This story is about pirate treasure.
    Captain and his First Mate Callie get brought a Pirate map by a bird. The map is to Secret Island. They start on their way and see arms coming over the side of the ship. It is a sea monster. Captain Pete knows him. He is friendly. Will They continue on to the island. What is that I feel? Water on my skin. Raining? I'm Sorry, I need to keep reading. I must find out how it ends. How about you?
    I found this book on a website for free for an honest review.

  • Angie

    My Review: We have been big Pete the Cat fans and so I picked this book up at the library. I think that Munchkin is finally starting to outgrow at least these picture book ones. He seemed a little bored with it but it was an entertaining story. I did struggle to find the typical Pete the Cat funky jazzy rhythm, it might just be that I am a little out of the groove. With that said it was a fun story and would give little ones ideas on new ways to have fun with friends with imaginative play.

  • Robin

    Join Captain Pete and First Mate Callie as they sail the seas in search of treasure.
    When a parrot brings Pete a treasure map , he and his crew are elated! But they have to brave rough weather and a scary sea monster to get to the Secret Island. This is no problem for Pete, who wins over the sea monster with his rockin' tunes. The monster helps Pete's boat get through the rough weather. When they finally make it to the secret isle, there is a big surprise waiting for them!

    Fantastic read, full of smiles and laughter.
    Rock on, Pete. Rock on!

  • Meg McGregor

    Lexi and Victoria, (and me, too!) simply love Pete the Cat!

    All of us are always excited when I can get a new one from the library!

    This one certainly didn't disappoint! The girls loved the pirate story; Lexi is convinced that Pete and Callie " are in love!"

    I loved when Grumpy Toad shared the treasure with Pete and all his friends!

    A pirate's life for me - as long as Pete and the gang -- are along for the ride!

  • Diana

    I've spent most of my adult life working with kids and books written for them, but it never ceases to amaze me how some books (and series) that are SOOOO popular with kids manage to have that appeal. THis is one of those series. Kids love Pete the Cat. And I read the books with no clue why. But that's okay. I'm not 8, so if I can't see the draw, it's understandable...right?

    Pirate Cat

    My 7 year old daughter says she liked the book because she loves pirate cats and parrots. We really thought it was fun when they were rocking out.
    Love having access to these books on Kindle Unlimited for all the time we spend at sports practices. I can take out my phone or a tablet and read books to the kids.
