A super cute St。 Patrick’s Day story about luck and what it truly means to be lucky。 This is also a great installment in the Pete the Cat series for ages 5-7 that uses a more robust vocabulary and teaches an important message about friendship and making your own luck。 I read this e-book on the Hoopla app through my library。

Pete's friends need some good luck, and he is ready to help on March 17, St。 Patrick's Day。 Nice friendship message, extra star for the leprechaun's limericks!

This is a pleasant story for kids, because of the St。 Patrick's Day theme, and because it stresses the importance of friendship。 This is a pleasant story for kids, because of the St。 Patrick's Day theme, and because it stresses the importance of friendship。 。。。more

Pete the Cat gets a brilliant idea of starting a leprechaun chasing business。 Friends approach him to ask for help related to different problems that they are having, and Pete follows the rainbow to its end to find Clover, a leprechaun。 Most of the time Clover evades him, singing a new song each time。 Does Pete need the leprechaun for luck and to help his friends, or was it inside him all along?The storyline doesn’t rise to the excellence of previous Pete the Cat books, but is a serviceable St。 Pete the Cat gets a brilliant idea of starting a leprechaun chasing business。 Friends approach him to ask for help related to different problems that they are having, and Pete follows the rainbow to its end to find Clover, a leprechaun。 Most of the time Clover evades him, singing a new song each time。 Does Pete need the leprechaun for luck and to help his friends, or was it inside him all along?The storyline doesn’t rise to the excellence of previous Pete the Cat books, but is a serviceable St。 Patrick’s Day book if you need more in your collection。 Additionally, it would fill the needs of your most ardent Pete the Cat fanatics。 The illustrations are typical of a book in this series: simplistic and full of color。 A poster, stickers, and 12 St。 Patrick’s Day cards are included。Previously reviewed here: https://mslbookreview。org/pete-the-ca。。。 。。。more

This book was a great book of adventure。

My son enjoyed this story! He loves leprechauns and Pete the Cat! I enjoyed the lesson it taught!

Lucca

The poems were cute that the leprechaun sang to Pete。 I enjoyed that Pete learned he is everything his friends needed。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it, click here。 Pete the Cat has the great idea to set up a stand offering to catch a leprechaun for his friends。 This doesn't exactly go as planned。。。。 but of course, Pete learns a few things along the way。 The leprechaun enjoys creating silly rhymes and taunting Pete as he is earnestly trying to help his friends。 It turns out for the best, but it takes a lot of effort and a final conversation instead of those silly traps and taunts to really learn something and conclude the story。 Pete the Cat has the great idea to set up a stand offering to catch a leprechaun for his friends。 This doesn't exactly go as planned。。。。 but of course, Pete learns a few things along the way。 The leprechaun enjoys creating silly rhymes and taunting Pete as he is earnestly trying to help his friends。 It turns out for the best, but it takes a lot of effort and a final conversation instead of those silly traps and taunts to really learn something and conclude the story。 。。。more

With St。 Patrick's Day approaching, and everyone in his class wanting a leprechaun for good luck, Pete the Cat decides that this is a business opportunity not to be missed, setting up a stand to sell leprechaun catchers。 Unfortunately for our upbeat feline hero, Clover the leprechaun is always one step ahead of him。 Will Pete ever catch him?

Or will he learn that luck is obtained another way。。。?Although I have read almost all of the full-sized Pete the Cat picture-books, as well as a number of the early readers, because the character is so popular at work, I have to say that these later additions to the series feel distinctly like coattail riding。 I can see young fans finding Pete the Cat: The Great Leprechaun Chase a fun St。 Patrick's Day story - there are twelve St。 Patrick's Day cards included, as well as a poster and a sheet of stickers - but for my part I thought the story and rhymes were poorly done。 I have a few Irish friends, moreover, who get a little。。。 testy, at the prevalence of leprechauns in Irish-themed books from the states。 Recommended primarily to determined admirers of the character。 。。。more

A fun story about trying to catch a leprechaun for luck, when it's generally a lot easier (and more rewarding) to make your own。The cynic in me was totally going to laugh if the whole "luck doesn't come from a leprechaun" thing was just going to be another way for Clover to escape。 A fun story about trying to catch a leprechaun for luck, when it's generally a lot easier (and more rewarding) to make your own。The cynic in me was totally going to laugh if the whole "luck doesn't come from a leprechaun" thing was just going to be another way for Clover to escape。 。。。more
