August 2015 Debut of the Month
‘I want a pet’ will be a familiar refrain in many households. Katie McGinty has her heart set on one pet in particular – not for her a hamster, cat or dog – not even a pig. Katie wants a zebra! She has it all planned out, where it will sleep, how to give it a bath. Dad is nonplussed as you’d expect, and completely caught out by the surprise twist in the story!
A lovely mix of the familiar and the absurd, this is a lots of fun, and implies that anything is possible if you really want it.
This funny picture book will resonate with any child who has ever wanted a pet - and any parent who has ever been nagged for one! With joyful illustrations from Finn Simpson and a hilarious twist at the end, Katie McGinty Wants a Pet! is the perfect book for animal-mad children!
