Silly Billy Series: The Impossible Pet

Tarun wants a pet—desperately. Especially since his best friend Joey has a brand-new puppy. But Papa says no, Mummy says no-no, and Daadi says achoo! So Tarun sets off on a wild pet-hunt, trying to charm everything from birds to baby crocodiles and even Aunty-C. Just when he’s about to give up, the fat cat brings news. Is there hope for the petless boy—or just more mosquito bites, pigeon poop, and trouble? Jane De Suza, the award-winning author of twelve books (or maybe more—she admits her counting skills aren’t great), brings her signature humor and heart to this delightful story. Living between India and Singapore by the sea, she meets otters—which, she insists, make impossible pets.
