My five-and-a-half year old boy/girl twins LOVE Pete the Cat and we have a number of the books. I ordered this book when it first came out and we've been enjoying it a lot!

The 5-Minute Pete the Cat Stories book is a wonderful compilation of stories for any Pete the Cat fan! This book contains 12 stories. Some of them are beginning reader stories and others are picture book stories. I've included the "Contents" page so you can see the titles included in this book. There are a total of 192 pages and each story is about 16 pages long. There are colorful illustrations to accompany the stories.

We love this book! When I bought it, I didn't know what stories are in it so we already had some of them but this book is a fantastic deal to get all of these stories in one big collection. We often read a number of them before bed and they are great to read during the day and before bedtime! If you have a little reader who loves Pete the Cat, I highly recommend this book!

10 STARS!!!!!!!!!! I absolutely loved my shopping experience! The order was delivered in record time. The book is so much better than I expected! It has 192 pages of most colorful adorable pictures and easy to read stories that my sons love so much lately. The hardcover is padded and covered with sturdy paper. The pages are glossy and rather thick, they should survive my both boys and then some. I can't wait for my kids to come home from school to read it with them :) Thank you! I am very happy with my Amazon shopping experience.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 22, 2019
Brilliant book - we were already fans of the cartoon so this was a way of having bedtime stories instead of screen time to watch Pete. We had to read them all through the first day, then some favourites emerged. They are lovely little stories with occasional uplifting subtle messages that don't make you want to sigh and Pete is an awesome character with no irritating habits, catchphrases or tendencies.

Would highly recommend - great as a gift as well as a lovely slightly padded cover. Our 4 & 7 year old both enjoy the stories and our 9yo will sometimes read them for them.
