Review
Who wouldn’t want an octopus as a pet? They’d be the perfect playmate, and all those arms would mean they’d be very helpful around the house.
Mum and Dad might not be so easily convinced—but they’re soon won over by the thought of a house painting, guitar playing, wine-and-bubble-bath pouring octopus helper. They both defer to Gran, who seems on board with the idea—but she insists that her pet (an orangutan) can’t be beat!
Silly, lighthearted and imaginative, this book would be an excellent discussion starter about why certain animals can’t be pets, and what environments wild animals need to live comfortably.
With brightly-coloured digital illustrations and a fast-paced, simple rhyming structure, this book is sure to entertain!
