Another adorable story that involves animals and a family--just like most young readers out there. Between the fantasy and the realistic fiction parts, it's sure to appeal to and enjoyed by many. In fact, it was voted the # 1 of 2010-2011 Florida Sunshine State titles.
Subject Area: Language Arts
Genre: Fantasy
Critique/Summary:
This book tells a story from pets' perspective. Because the animals can all talk to each other (some can even read!) this book is an example of fantasy. However, the circumstances, setting, plot, etc. are all fit more into the realistic fiction genre. The events are not extremely out of the ordinary. The time and setting are not made up by the author.
