Can I Keep Him?

Rating:
Summary: Children love this book!
Review: Arnold wants a pet and his imagination is off and running. Arnold's mother directs him gently in the right direction, but not before Arnold comes up with some wildly inappropriate choices. Steven Kellogg's illustrations are delicious. This is one of my children's favorite books. Now that they are older, they buy this book for every little kid they can think of. Don't miss it!

Summary: Great Book
Review: I really enjoyed Can I Keep Him? It was funny. I highly recommend it for anyone who likes a good read. What will happen to the little tadpole Arnold's uncle sent to him? I will tell you one thing, it doesn't turn into a frog.

Summary: Great Book
Review: I've been a Steven Kellogg fan for nearly 20 years now. His work is original, engaging, and entertaining. He does his own illustrations which "make" his stories come to life for me.

In this book by Kellogg a lonely little boy is in search of a friend. In the natural course of events the little boy either brings home or asks his mother if he can bring home animal after animal for a pet. Thus the book's title, "Can I Keep Him?" His mother's responses are typical, but the translation of her responses in her son's head (shown in picures also done by Kellogg) are hilarious!

A definite hit with children and adults alike!

Give it a try.

Definitely 5 stars.
