About book Pete The Cat And His Not So Grumpy Day (2013)
Pete the Cat and His Magic Sunglasses by Kimberly and James Dean drew my interest because like the authors, I am a cat lover. Pete is having a bad day until his friend Grumpy Toad gives him some cool, blue, magic sunglasses. Pete shares his glasses with different animal friends, and they all become happy. This book has a positive message despite Pete's initially disappointment at the end. Great read-aloud for preschoolers to third grade, with wonderful illustrations. I can't even explain my emotions on this book. I saw the book trailer and I was just screaming because it seemed like something I would write. I read this around the end of February along with my best friend. After a while, I started to get lost in a sea of thoughts of what Pete's sunglasses actually stood for. I eventually decided that his sunglasses were a metaphor for drugs, alcohol, self harm, ditching school/work, etc. Basically anything people would do to get away from their problems. Wow.Anyways... read it. It's so cute.
