Product Description

Review

"A great mystery finish to stimulate the imagination." The Sunday Times" --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Product Description

"I quite fancy a pet - an African lion or an octopus or even a boa constrictor. The trouble is, Mum and Dad and Granny and Grandad all have objections to pets. Grandad says that sheep are forever following you around; Dad says wolves give him a headache; and Mum says she'll cancel tea-time if I mention bats in the wardrobe again. So I must try to find a pet that none of them will mind. What could I have?". Lauren Child's deliciously droll riddle of a text, accompanied by her own delightful and wacky illustrations, is sure to raise chuckles with grown-ups and children alike.

I want a pet.
By lauren child

This story is about a little girl who wants a pet. some of the pets she wants has something that interfere with her family. I think this book will be good for children 4- any age. My reading buddy would like this book because he loves to read books with funny pictures. I think it will be good for a child that want a pet but cannot choose. This book has illustrastions that a child can enjoy.

My 2 year old is a huge fan of the Charlie and Lola series. We stumbled across "I Want a Pet" upon a recent visit to the library. My daughter fell in LOVE with this book so now we are going to have to get our British grandmother to get us a copy (much less expensive than the $14.00 American version!). My daughter can recite the whole book! The illustrations are fantastic. We highly recommend this book!
