Arnold wants a pet. His mother has reasons why each one will not work.
A dog, a cat, and even far more unusual creatures pass through Arnold’s hopeful imagination, but every idea meets a firm no. The fun comes from how large and wild Arnold’s pet wishes become, and from the quieter feeling underneath them: he is really looking for someone to share his days with.
Steven Kellogg’s humorous picture book turns a child’s longing for a pet into a warm story about companionship. With playful exaggeration and a gentle emotional center, it is a good fit for readers who like animal stories, funny family conversations, and imaginative problem solving.
