Emma's Strange Pet

(3) K-3 I Can Read Book series. Illustrated by Jennifer Plecas & Jennifer Plecas. In this third installment in the series, Max wants a dog, but his big sister Emma is allergic to fur. A lizard is a good compromise, and caring for the new pet brings the siblings closer while sensitively resolving issues of Max's own status as a new, adopted family member. Both subject matter and writing are on target, and simply drawn, expressive characters gently guide the fledgling reader.
