If he can’t have a dog or a cat, he’d be happy to settle for gerbils, or hamsters, or mice, or even an iguana—but Mom and Dad don’t agree. Jacob’s imagination runs wild when he visualizes himself as the owner of a giant emu—or a walrus. But the fun really starts when Mom and Dad allow Jacob to start up his own pet-sitting business. Suddenly, he has more pets than he can handle! Finally, at story’s end, Jacob finds an unusual little pet that is all his own. Here’s a laugh-filled tale for reading aloud to toddlers, or for early graders to enjoy reading by themselves.
