Review by 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

Review by 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.
