Books Make Good Pets

<p><i>Books make good pets and don''t need going to the vet.<br>You don''t have to keep them on a lead or throw them a stick.<br>They''ll wag their words whenever you flick their dog-eared pages.<br></i><i>Even howl an ancient tale for the inward-listening ear.</i><br><br>Did you know that a book can take you <i>anywhere</i>? You only need to turn the pages of a story, and in a moment, you and your book could be crossing the waves in a pirate ship... or diving with mermaids... or even snoozing with a dragon.<br><br>Books really DO make good pets! Why don''t you peep inside this one, and take your mind on an adventure?<br><br>This delightful original picture book poem is the perfect gift for anyone who delights in the magic of a good book. Agard''s evocative, lyrical style is perfectly complemented with illustrations by Momoko Abe, whose colourful visuals add character, transporting the reader into an enchanting world of imagination.</p>
