Mossy wants a pet, and only an Itch will do--no matter what his family says! Mossy the Monster wants a Pet Itch, but his family comes up with many reasons against him having one. It takes his scheming older sister to come up with a plan that will not only get him a Pet Itch, but also gets the adults to do all the dirty work! There is never a dull moment in this book with temper tantrums, rude rhymes, and absolutely delightful illustrations.
