About this title:
Bird?
Bunny?
Turtle?
Fish?
Elizabeth really, really wants a pet, but her parents say NO
to all of her ideas. Instead, she ends up with a cactus called
Carolyn. And after some very unsuccessful campaigning, to her
wonderful surprise, Elizabeth encounters Doug -- surely the most
unusual and special pet of all.
Even Carolyn agrees.
Margie Palatini and Bruce Whatley team up for a wacky picture
book that handles a topic every parent and child will relate to
-- choosing that just perfect pet. |

plan B. Can this terrible and terribly hungry duo satisfy
their hankering before their new disguises land them in
ill-fated trouble?

fairy-tale follow-up to their hilarious bad boys.

Zak's Lunch
by Margie Palatini~Howard Fine
Zak
is disappointed when his mother serves him a ham and cheese
sandwich for lunch. When he complains that the sandwich is
boring, his mother replies "This is not a restaurant, young
man. I want that lunch gone. And that's that." Suddenly, a
fast-talking waitress appears and serves Zak a platter of
delicious lunch items, including cheeseburgers, pizzas, and
french fries. But just as Zak is about to taste some of the
desserts, reality, and his ham sandwich, reappear.
