They go through a list of animals and how they would provide for these animals in their small apartment. In the end they settle for an animal that would be just right for their family. Good book to talk to students about what kinds of animals are "wild" vs. "for the home" This is a very funny book children will enjoy. The various exotic animals take over the apartment and often make aside comments in speech bubbles. Another clever element is the story progresses as the father and son get ready for their day...so you see them doing their daily routine of breakfast, shaving, etc in the midst of all of the imaginative pet circumstances. The book would make a good read out loud for library story time because it is so funny. Children could point out many of the silly things they see the animals doing. Following the book, the children could share what animal they would like as a pet if they could choose any animal in the world. They could draw a picture of that animal at their house and the things they would need to keep that animal happy. Depending on the age of the children, they could write a story about it as well.

I think the big idea of this book is compromising with others. During this story, Tony asks for insane animals to have as pets and his dad continuously turns them down for different reasons. However, at the end of the book, Tony suggests getting a puppy and his dad finally agrees to it and Tony gets his pet. ( )
