The Best Pet Ever

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Deborah Allwright. A girl asks her mom if she can have a pet; her mom's response: "We'll see." So whatever the girl sees--rock, glove, candy wrapper, balloon--becomes her pet "for a day or two." The stylish cartoon illustrations give the girl's inanimate pets personality in this creative celebration of imagination. The wish-fulfillment ending (she gets a kitten) will delight fellow hopeful pet owners.
