Logline:
While out for a stroll, a little girl repeatedly stumbles upon very attainable pets. She begins to collect them in cages.
London:
I like when she finds the snail. First she's looking away, then she finds him on her shoe. After that, she shows him to the mailman. Then into the cage, of course. I also like when she sets them free. I like the mouse part because I skipped a page. (Heh-heh, or two!)
Ben:
It's a bit jarring to see all those animals in cages, but it is rather cathartic when she finally comes to her senses and let's em all out. Really inventive ways to entrap animals abound. Jack Kent illustrations typically awesome.
What it would be like to be in this book:
London says, "If I was the little girl, I would not set the animals free. But I would set the spider free. Ew. Or maybe kill it." Ben would enjoy seeing these animals, but the better cage is a digital photo.
