Children Make Terrible Pets

by Peter Brown (2010)

for ages 4 to 6 years

This is the tale of a bear named Lucy who finds a wild critter in the forest. Since he is the "cutest critter ever" she wants to keep him as a pet. She brings the little boy home, where her mom warns her that children do not make good pets.

Mom is right. He destroys furniture, can't be housebroken, and ruins tea parties. One day to Lucy's horror, he disappears. She catches his scent and follows it only to find him where he really belongs.

The book ends on a silly note when we see Lucy eyeing an elephant. The book has vintage looking graphics, and each page is framed in faux wood grain. The text is written upon colored rectangles that have a pasted down appearance, adding to the graphic appeal of the already appealing picture book.-sc-
