A wonderful book!

This book is amazing. I taught 2 year olds for years and this was always a favorite. The pictures are simple and bright. It is a great teaching resource. I like to use it as a theme related book during PET week. It flows really well when read outloud. The kids call it the octopus book. If you are looking for a wonderful book to read outloud to your pre-schooler this one is it!

This book is a whole lot of fun.

"Can we keep him?" begs a pig-tailed little girl to her pipe-puffing pop. As familiar as this phrase is to millions of parents the world over, the object of her plea is not exactly pet material - a globulous green octopus. Her father's response let's us know that he has been down this road before, as he lists a panoply of pet predicaments that the winsome little lass has already subjected on her family.The story unfolds in a well-cadenced rhyme that accompanies the off-the-wall illustrations. Yaccarino has a cool, geometric graphic style that evokes the early 1960s. This book is a whole lot of fun.
