About Pete's School Shoes
Pete the Cat: Rocking in My School Shoes - Eric Litwin,James Dean

This book is fun, easy to read, engaging, and catchy. I would definitely use this book to read aloud to my class, at the beginning of the year in grades k-3. After reading it out loud, of course, I would keep it in my classroom library.

Pete the Cat too Cool for School By: Kimberly and James Dean
Pete the Cat: Too Cool for School - Kimberly Dean,James Dean

"Pete the Cat too Cool for School" contains a great moral: "If you want to be cool, just be you!". This would be a great book for the beginning of the year. After reading, students could complete an activity writing and presenting to the class how they are cool, giving details about themselves.

Llama Llama Time to Share By: Anna Dedney
Llama Llama Time to Share - Anna Dewdney

This book would be great for a social skills lesson on sharing and making new friends. Great for beginning of school year.In the story Llama meets Gnu girl, he has to learn to share with Gnu girl and to find something to play together that meets both of their different interests. 

The text also rhymes throughout the story, this book could be used to reinforce different word families.  

I found a activity pack on teachers pay teachers to go along with this book:

Included in this pack:
- Story sequencing activity
- Rhyming practice cards (great for a Memory activity!)
- Rhyming words practice sheet
- An original short story related to sharing (nice for fluency practice!)
- Extension activities for the short story
- Writing activity
