Welcome to: A Book or Two: Children's Literature Reviews, a blog site that offers information on new, classic, and favorite children's literature, reviewed by university professors, classroom teachers, librarians, and those studying to become teachers. We hope you will find "just the right book" to share with others. Our goal is to keep the site updated with information about children's authors, book awards, and new releases. Each entry will include the book cover picture, a brief overview, bibliographic information, and suggested uses for families, librarians, and teachers. We will categorize books in several different ways, to facilitate searching.

Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes


Author:   Eric Litwin
Illustrator:  James Dean
Copyright: 2008    Genre: Fiction
Reading Level: ages 0-4    Activity Grade Level:   Kindergarten
Book Description: 
Pete the Cat is a groovy cat that never looses his cool. He steps in all sorts of messy things like strawberries and mud and a huge bucket of water. But Pete never gets upset.

Integrated Idea:
Have the students understand the different roles of the author and the illustrator. When reading the book, take note of the pages that only have words on them and those that only have an illustration on it.
