Children Make Terrible Pets by Peter Brown
Lucy, a young brown bear in a pink skirt, meets a little boy in the forest one day. She takes him home, excitedly shows him to her mother, and begs, "Can I keep him, PLEASE?" But her mother warns her that children make terrible pets. And soon, Lucy finds out that her mother is right! This will be a great read aloud for school or at home! Children will laugh out loud at Lucy and her new pet Squeaker!
