review 1: This story a light-hearted explanation of what it is like to own a pet, such as a cat or dog, with the humor of that pet being an ever-growing raptor. From snuggling sitting on her lap to destroying the furniture to staring at nothing at all, the girl covers the good, the bad, and the mysterious of owning a pet, with the oblivious innocence of a child. The simple watercolor illustrations focus on the girl and her raptor, with minimal background and props, mimicking this simple story. A fun read for one-on-one or group sharing.
review 2: Because who doesn't want a cute, fluffy velociraptor wearing a bell?This book has engaging pictures, text that parents can read without gritting their teeth, and a little girl who really loves her pet. My five year old is just ... morethe right age for this book: he is very interested in the practicalities of a pet, like feeding, training, cuddling. He is also exactly the right age to find the concept of a pet velociraptor hilarious.Ideal for reading with your child and your pet. less
