No Pets Allowed!

Author: Chitra SoundarIllustrator: Fay Austin

When Keva’s Grandpa goes to the hospital, can she bring Atlas, the much-loved tortoise, with her to visit him? Not only does this story embrace all the joy that animals can bring, but the factual information is very interesting too! Lovely black-and-white illustrations that highly complement the narrative.
