What They're Saying
Critics Review
“The message–that the right pet is the one that fits your life–lands with grace… A witty charmer, rife with both heart and puns.” -Kirkus
“Offering a mini-commentary on upgrade-driven, novelty-hungry culture, this bustling picture book supplies a quiet lesson that sticks: souped-up isn’t the same as well-suited.” -Publishers Weekly
“[This book’s] message circles back to the empathy we cultivate with true creature companions and the excitement of finding the perfect new pet.” -Booklist
