No Pets Allowed!
Description
This collection of stories includes a delightful tale about a young boy named Murali who discovers a stray kitten and, with the help of his friend Anita, devises a plan to hide it from their building's 'no pets' policy. Another story features Keva, who helps at her Grandpa's pet adoption center and hatches a plan to bring his best friend, a tortoise named Atlas, to cheer him up in the hospital despite the pet ban enforced by the hospital manager. These tales teach valuable lessons about responsibility, compassion, community, and the healing power of pets. These engaging stories, part of the Bloomsbury Readers series, are designed to support children in Key Stage 2 as they begin reading independently.
