Reviewer: Travis

The name of the book being recommended: Children Make Terrible Pets by Peter Brown

Please give us five reasons why this book is awesome:

1. Answers the important question, "Do children make good pets?" You'll have to read it all the way through to find out!

2. Has a cool graphic novel/picture book hybrid format; aka, a picture book with speech balloons.

3. The role-reversal story line has humor that appeals to both kids and adults.

4. The pencil-drawn artwork and design are excellent and innovative, using wood and construction paper.

5. The cliffhanger ending will make you wonder if elephants make good pets. Fortunately, there's a sequel called You Will be My Friend!.
