Mason Dixon: Pet Disasters

More about the book

Mason Dixon, a soon-to-be fourth grader, initially resists having a pet, but his parents insist it will be beneficial for him. After a series of unfortunate pet encounters—his goldfish dies, a hamster escapes, and a cat must leave due to his best friend's allergies—Mason feels relieved each time. However, when a dog arrives, jealousy sparks a change in Mason, leading him to embrace the idea of having a pet of his own. Claudia Mills introduces this humorous character in a series aimed at newly independent readers, featuring consistent page counts and black-and-white illustrations.
