(4) K-3 Leading up to her aunt's baby shower, Zoe, desperate for a pet, dreams that it rains kittens, puppies, bunnies, and piglets. After the party, she finds a dog huddled outside her aunt's apartment--and gets to keep it. The story tries to do too much; Zalben's well-crafted, warm-hearted illustrations attempt to keep up.
