Pets Rule!
by Holly I. Melton
The Third Street Pets rule their neighborhood! Harry is a smart cat with no hair. Tiger is a kitten, but don’t call her a baby! Baz is a loud parrot who wants to be famous. Oscar is a nearsighted dog who borrows people’s glasses. Pippa is a huge dog who’s always hungry.
Together, they keep their neighborhood safe from a smelly skunk and a rival group that’s giving pets a bad name. They save a baby, go on a TV show, and deal with the horrors of Fourth of July fireworks.
