Who does not like "Pete the cat" books .My daughter has just started Kindergarten this year and these books are her favorite . They have small sentences and colorful illustrations . You get five books . I have attached the pics . I have even kept a book on A4 size white sheet , so you can see that it is not a large book . Good size for kids to hold and read. The box that it comes with is sturdy enough to handle the wear and tear in kids hands for some time. A Velcroround pad is used to open and close the case. Cannot say how long the velcro will hold with numerous open and close session with kids .

5.0 out of 5 stars This is an absolutely wonderful set of books for any small child
Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2016

This is an absolutely wonderful set of books for any small child, especially if they love cats. We have had this set for about seven months and the carrying case and the books have held up well.

When I bought them for my daughter she was in first grade and was able to read them all with little difficulty, there are a few larger words that she stumbled on, but they have been great for nightly reading and to practice reading. She loves cats and loves Pete the Cat. For at least a month straight this set of books went everywhere with us.

Each story is different and is entertaining to read, even I was entertained. This set comes with five level one reading books, each a different entertaining story. Plus the illustrations are done very well.

This set makes a great gift for any child and my daughter loves them. They are still read regularly and are a part of her personal library.

The stories are simple and easy to read for the little guy. Great practice using the sight words he is working with in school. The stories can be relatable so you can ask follow up questions to get the brain flowing.

Reviewed in the United States on April 29, 2016

I bought these for my niece's 4th birthday. She is just starting to read on her own, here and there, so I thought I'd get her something that was a bit above the baby/toddler book level. I saw the Pete the Cat books and though he was very cute and the stories seemed fun. I know that when my niece likes something, she's going to want to use (or in this case, read) that item over and over. This means re-reading the same books for my sister and brother-in-law. These books look fun and amusing even for the adults. My niece is already obsessed with them and is working on reading them with her parents.

I also love how affordable these books are. Even the single, soft-cover books are very low in price, which I think is so important for a book that will be lightly (or heavily) abused if you're giving them to children of a young age. They are also light, thin, and portable, especially with the case that this set comes in. I would highly recommend these.

I love these fun Pete the cat books! They are super cool, colorful and celebrate children’s favorite topics. Perfect starter sentences and clear text makes this a winner for early readers. We ordered the carry all pack of I can read books, plus a Pete the Cat matching game and the Pete the Cat and the Missing Cupcakes game for our 5 year old nephew. He will love this! He loves cats and cupcakes! (And sprinkles!) This will help him keep busy during Covid-19 quarantine. Every kid loves getting things in the mail, so we’ll mail it along with other care package items. He will be learning, but Shhhhhh! He won’t even know it because he will be having so much fun with Pete the Cat!
