2 WHAT HAPPENS IN THE SHOW Pete a rock and roll cat and his animal friends are living a life of freedom. They wander into a yard and Pete is caught by the cat-catcher. His punishment is to spend a week as a housecat with a family Pete meets the Biddles and becomes roommates with Jimmy Biddle a second grader who is nervous about the idea of Pete. Jimmy has lots of rules that Pete is to follow. But Pete likes to play it cool and isn t a rule-follower. Jimmy brings Pete to school. Jimmy is flustered in art class. He copies another student s painting because he can t think of his own idea for a picture. He gets in trouble and has to create an original picture in order to pass second grade. To help Jimmy, Pete takes him in the VW bus to find inspiration for his picture. They travel to the beach, moon and Paris when Jimmy learns to let loose and jam with magic sunglasses. He paints the perfect picture.

3 CHARACTERS IN THE PLAY Jimmy: is a careful, formally attired second grade boy. He likes rules and gets easily overwhelmed. Cast picture! Pete: is a fun loving cat who loves to jam on his guitar. Can you find them in the picture? Who are you most like? After the show, what other words can be used to describe these characters? Can you identify the rest of the cast?

James Dean (illustrator & author) & Kim Dean James Dean s art has sold in more than ninety galleries and shops across the United States. He has devoted his paintings to Pete the Cat for ten years and has turned his natural love for cats into his life s work. James published his first adult book, The Misadventures of Pete the Cat, a history of his art work, in He illustrated his first selfpublished children s book, Pete the Cat I Love my White Shoes, written by Eric Litwin, in 2008, and the follow-up book, Pete the Cat: Rocking In My School Shoes, in James lives in Savannah, Georgia with his wife, Kimberly. In 2004, Kimberly & James Dean sat down at their kitchen table to work on a children s book together.

Both left corporate jobs in the late nineties (James was an electrical engineer, Kimberly worked in the press office of the governor of Georgia) to pursue their five cats and Emma the pug.

5 MEET THE INSPIRATION Illustrator and author James Dean finds and adopts a cat at an animal shelter. James names him Pete. He was tiny and would rest in Deans hand as he painted landscapes. Dean was inspired to draw Pete one day when the kitty was sitting still. He worried that a picture of a black cat would be spooky so he chose blue! Look around you what animal do you see that you could use for inspiration? What different color could you use? The real Pete the Cat. Courtesy of Dean.
