Pete the Cat and the Surprise Teacher

(4) K-3 I Can Read Book series. When cat Pete's mom is the substitute teacher (surprise!), the usual routine is upended. Attempts to find the art room misfire; at lunchtime, the class finds itself on the playground. Pete takes it all in stride: "Let's have a picnic." The slight but nicely circular story concludes with an art-y surprise for Mrs. Cat. Loosely rendered, laid-back illustrations help support new readers.
