Fans of Pete the Cat / Readers Looking for a Picture-Book Version of the Classic Song
Using the classic English children's lullaby as his text, artist James Dean creates another fun little Pete the Cat book. The bright and colorful illustrations depict that cool cat coming home and getting ready for bed, before drifting off to sleep with the words of the song being incorporated into his dream...

These singalong books in the Pete the Cat series don't rock the boat too much with new twists. But that's the point. They are designed to introduce traditional children's songs.
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (my personal favorite of the bunch) features the full lyrics of the original 19th century poem, not the abbreviated one. The illustrations show Pete coming home from school and going through his nighttime routine with his family. It's a perfect bedtime book that ends in a dreamy, fantastical ...more

Although it is not my favorite Pete the Cat book, my littlest enjoyed singing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" along with the book.
My kids love this book
Pete seems to have lost his catattitude. Though this book is somewhat interesting as it includes all stanzas of the Twinkle, Twinkle nursery song, Pete's take seems to be lackluster. Fans will appreciate another Pete book but otherwise there's nothing fantastic here.
Pete the Cat Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star written by James Dean was a book that I feel an elementary class can relate to. This book mentions the nursery rhyme Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star which a lot of young children may know. However, I do not feel that I would read this story to my students. I really didn't feel like there was a purpose or overall message to this story that I would be able to discuss with my class. This book may be one that students could read during their silent reading

The girls were simply mesmerized by Pete's nighttime activities, while I was singing the word,s to the traditional and much loved, Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star!
One or the other kept saying, "I do that!" while Pete was having his dinner, taking his bath, putting on his pajamas, reading books with Mom, and then going to sleep, having fantastic dreams!
I do like, that Mr. Dean included, the original verses! I love learning something new from a "children's book!"

Appropriate for grades pre-k-1
This book is a twist on the classic twinkle twinkle little star. Pete talks about all the star does and how it is helpful, but does not know what it is.
Children love Pete the Cat. It a familiar character to them, and they know it is going to be a fun book, so it keeps them engaged.
You can use this book when talking about stars. Ask them what they know about stars and what they think a star is. Can also ask about why stars are helpful.

We loved Pete and his buttons and shoes, but the subsequent ones lack much of the charm. This, for instance, feels particularly lackluster. Pete is shown getting ready for bed, a star stuck somewhere on each page, with almost the traditional lyrics to Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. Where the words have been changed, it often makes them fit poorly to the music.
For a more whimsical and captivating set of illustrations to this song, I recommend Jerry Pinkney's Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.

Pete the Cat goes about his nighttime routine singing "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."
I'd never heard many of the words here, but I did a little research and evidently the original song did have five stanzas though most of us only know the first one. Dean has included the entire original here. A nice bedtime book for Pete the Cat fans or those who want to learn ALL the words to "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star."

Pete the Cat: Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star is a nursery rhyme book that comes from a long line of Pete the Cat books. This Pete the Cat books invites kids to sing along to a very popular nursery rhyme that everyone should know.
Learned there's more to twinkle, twikle, little star than just 1 verse!
Pete the cat sings Twinkle Twinkle Little Star all throughout his day. Includes all the verses to the song! Who knew!
Might work for storytime, but veers quite a bit from the original song, so will be more difficult to do.
Very cute.
I love pete the cat! I wish he would've switched up the words a bit more , but the illustrations were great! A good board book for the little ones!
I love Pete the Cat. He's such a good, wholesome, character and I LOVE reading his stories and watching his videos with kids. It's any easy and fun way to connect with them!
Very cute, but didn't like as much as some of the other Pete the cat books.
You know, I never knew this poem went beyond the first verse. I was pleasantly surprised to learn I was wrong.
Pete the cat sings Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star, that's uniquely his own song.
Marcus Loves this book. It is a bit awkward to sing out loud.
Seems to me like they are running out of things to write about Pete so they are just doing song with a small twist and they really are not that great.
This story can be sung to the tune of "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" as Pete the Cat wonders about the stars. Fun illustrations.
Another cute illustrative song with Pete the Cat. I enjoyed the additional lyrics as well as the pictures. My toddler loves to "sing" along as well. A fun read for parents and toddlers.
Pete the Cat is alway cool. We like the artwork. My 2 year old really likes airplanes right now so he got excited watching Pete fly in the airplane (which is really a rocket ship)
I thought this one was pretty boring. My kid didn't seem to be into it either. It's a shame because Pete the cat is awesome.
This was... weird.
My granddaughter’s favorite song is Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star. She also loves cats so I thought this book would quickly become a favorite. She was fairly attentive during the first reading but hasn’t shown any interest in since.
Pete the cat is a cute, but fairly stagnant character in the illustrations. He seriously lacks expression as do the other cats. I was surprised to find this book is part of a series as the characters seem to lack sparkle.

This is the extended version of the Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star song that we teach kids. It feels a little more religious to me when it's read/sung in its entirety as it is here.
Pete goes through his nightly routine which made for a strange reading for me because the pictures don't exactly support the text; it's more like they're loosely connected which giving this book a double storyline. "Reading" the pictures makes for a different experience from reading the text and it sits funny with me.
