Archie has the perfect pet to enter in the neighborhood pet show: the stray cat that followed him home. It's sure to win him a prize. But now the cat is missing! What will he do if the cat doesn't come back? Archie is a quick-thinking boy with a solution for everything-even a surprise last-minute entry for the pet show! Ezra Jack Keats (1916-1983), award-winning author/illustrator, made a name for himself by creating urban settings with a cast of multicultural characters. While his artistic styles vary, his books remain both playful and timeless.

Publisher's Weekly Review

Pet Show! by Ezra Jack Keats, first published in 1972, captures a smalltown simplicity amidst an urban landscape, as an African-American boy struggles with the decision of which pet to enter in the neighborhood contest. ( Sept.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Horn Book Review

In this welcome reissue of a funny, lively story, young Archie cannot find his cat to enter it in the neighborhood pet show. He solves his problem by showing up with a jar that he claims contains his pet germ--and wins a ribbon, for the quietest pet. Keats's text and art are as appealing as ever.
