School Library Journal - 10/01/2025 PreS-Gr 3—Pete gets himself a slick blue car with orange pinstripes and hotrod flame decals. As he drives throughout town, all his friends need a ride. More friends hop in the car with each turn of the page until there are 10 animals crammed inside. Pete realizes his car may be cool, but it's not big enough. He trades it in for a big yellow bus that looks like it's on the way to Woodstock 1969. Text is simple and concise. Pete's hippie slang and the car's friendly beeps are emphasized with large yellow typeface. Pete counts his friends as they get in the car, and the numbers are clearly defined in red. Endpapers feature a groovy road grid with a variety of cars and trucks on their commutes. Backgrounds mostly use a bright primary color palette. Pete stops at all the stop signs. VERDICT A strong addition to a beloved series. - Copyright 2025 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
