New Pete the Cat Book Giveaway and a Freebie, too!

Are you as excited about the new Pete the Cat book as I am??
I asked Nikki at Melonheadz a couple months back to create some Pete the Cat artwork to accompany a Pete pack…and she did NOT disappoint.  The artwork is ADORABLE and ever since she sent it to me I have been working on a GROOVY new  Kitty Cat Pack that includes activities for all three books…even the new one!  Which brings us to the giveaway.
To celebrate the release of the new Pete the Cat and His Four Groovy Buttons on Tuesday, I am giving away a copy of the book along with my newKitty Cat Pack!
Giveaway is closed =(
To enter the giveaway, all you need to do is follow my blog 
(which I hope you already do =)
 and leave a comment below telling me why you love Pete.  That’s it.  
Giveaway runs until Wednesday (May 2) at 9pm central.  
Feel free to share the giveaway with folks, 
but you don’t have to =)
If you cannot wait and want to go ahead and purchase my Kitty Cat Pack, no worries!!
If the winner has already purchased my Pete the Cat pack, they can pick
out any other item from my TPT store as their freebie!

 

 

If you have made it all the way down here to the bottom of this super long post…

    I am new to the blogging world, but your blog was one of the first ones I followed! I would love to use your Pete the Cat unit! My kids think Pete is the coolest cat around (I agree) and they would love this.

    Thanks for all your inspiration!

    I follow your blog and LOOOOOVE Pete! I love the books because not only do my kids "plead" that I read the story but when the I put on the song at te end of the day- the kids eyes light up with excitement and they all are engaged and have it memorized by the end of the year. I'm going to have my kiddos perform it at the end of the year for the parents! =)

    I love Pete! My Kdg. kiddos memorized the book the first day and were so exited to have a book they could "read" by themselves. We are so excited for the new book!

    I follow your blog 🙂 Last week I ordered all of the Pete the Cat books, because it seems like a lot of bloggers love him (and so do their classes). I'm hoping to share these great stories with my class before the end of the year!!

    We love Pete the Cat! I started the year with Pete and my Kdg kids loved him. Pete books are used as a reward for good behavior. I love when my kids break out in song – they would do the whole story if I let them. I also love that my Charles always says "Goodness, No" instead of no! Love your blog too. Looks like a great unit!

    I love Pete the Cat because I have had the wonderful opportunity to meet both Eric Litwin and James Dean! Mr. Eric performed at my school way before the Pete the Cat books came out, and I met James Dean at an art gallery! My excitement about this (small) personal connection to the author and illustrator carries over into my love of their collaboration into children's literature, and my students can't help but pick up on that! I dressed up like Pete for our character parade this year, too!!

    🙂 Your pack looks fabulous!

    I follow in Google Reader and I love Pete the Cat! My kinders loved the book (that we found on You Tube) at the beginning of the year. The predictable text is great for beginning readers as well.

    My first-grade students and I absolutely LOVE Pete the Cat. We love how nothing seems to get him down and he just keeps going along, singing his song. I have even heard my students telling each other "don't worry, it's all good!"

    …and I love your blog. I'm a follower, too!

    I would love to win this! I LOVE Pete the Cat books and activities because kids are crazy about them! My 4 year old was reading and singing to the first book many days after I shared it with her for the first time. He's just got this magic about him! Oh, how I would love to win this! Thanks for the opportunity!
