Pets!

32 pp. | Holt | January, 1998 | Trade ISBN 0-8050-3893-0
(3) K-3 Sprightly rhyming verse describes the myriad choices a pet show offers a boy trying to pick out a pet: "Sleek pets / Slick pets / Do-amazing-tricks pets....Tiny pets / Shiny pets / Prickly-and-spiny pets." Lighthearted mixed-media pictures reveal a fanciful array of pets including salamanders in tutus, pet rocks, and a nice twist, a plaid-pant-wearing cat that chooses to go home with the boy.
