Book Details
Every school needs a little help now and then, especially PS 1000.
Sure, just like your school, PS 1000 has teachers, a principal, and a maintenance crew, who all keep everything running smoothly, but they don't do it alone!
Who do you think makes sure everyone gets back on the bus after a class trip? Who doesn't let the scenery in the school play accidentally fall over? Who fights off a gang of rampaging squirrels trying to steal chocolate pudding cups from the cafeteria?
The Class Pet Squad, that's who! And when a student leaves his beloved action figure behind in class, the CPS—a hamster, a turtle, a rabbit, and a lizard—have to find a way to get it back to him, even if it means crossing paths with a dog and, worse, a cat.
Class Pet Squad is yet another fun, illustrated chapter book from Dan Yaccarino, the author of several children's books such as Zorgoochi Intergalactic Pizza: Delivery of Doom, Every Friday, Unlovable, and Doug Unplugged.
