1-3Animal Inn series.
Illustrated by
Stephanie Laberis.
The Tylers, (human) owners of the Animal Inn, provide pet services and boarding, offering "any habitat a guest might need." In both formulaic installments (each narrated by a different animal inhabitant), a rumor of a scary upcoming guest gets the family pets in a tizzy. Short chapters, humorous misunderstandings, and peppy narrators will appeal to new chapter-book readers. Muddily produced black-and-white illustrations are included. Review covers these Animal Inn titles: A Furry Fiasco and Treasure Hunt.
