Piper's Pet Pursuit: A Funny Picture Book about One Little Girl's Quirky Path to Pet Ownership - Hardcover

by Cortney Renae Cino (Author), Luis Peres (Illustrator)

Children everywhere can relate to Piper's longing for a real furry friend.

Despite her eagerness to prove she is ready for a pet, Piper's parents continue to say "no." Frustration mounts until several unexpected and somewhat icky (according to her parents) house guests give Piper a much-needed distraction.

Embodying the values her parents instilled in her, Piper goes above and beyond for these visitors and even rescues a few creatures from outside. Piper learns lessons about kindness, perseverance, and creativity.

In a funny twist, the wacky events of the week, including a stunning transformation of her bedroom, lead Piper and her parents closer to what she desires the most.

So who visits, how does Piper care for them, and does she reach her goal in the end? Grab a copy of this creepy-crawly picture book to find out!
