Plum wants the perfect pet, but instead realizes she has the perfect dad in this charming and hilarious picture book that's great for Father's Day.
Plum wants a pet. Plum's dad wants NO pets. So Plum, who never takes no for an answer, gets the only pet she can: a pet dad. Dad is a great pet — he loves playtime, tummy rubs, and scratches behind the ears. But every time Plum tries to get him to sit, or fetch, or chase, dad barks NO. Plum doesn't take no for an answer. How will she train her perfect pet (without getting a time-out)?
Hilariously relatable and with ultra-cute art, Pet Dad is perfect for kids who love or want pets — or who already have the perfect parents to make up for it.
"Allen blends measured white space with fine, textured patterns, while Plum’s commands and her father’s refusals ('Sit!’ ‘Heck no,’ he barks) appear in bright orange lettering. Allen nails the dynamic between an accommodating father and a sometimes bossy child, while hinting that the best father-daughter relationships are built on mutual love and respect." — Publishers Weekly
