<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A cat that enjoys his carefree life gets some treats and backrubs from the humans who have just moved into his favorite abandoned house, then sets out to train them properly, all the while protesting to his friends that he has no interest in being tied down to a human pet.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>From queen cat lady Yasmine Surovec, this is a cuddly chapter book series about a cat in need of a pet human. </p><p>Oliver is an independent kitty. He has the run of his neighborhood and looks at his animal friends with their fussing humans with pity. But when a freckle-faced girl moves to town, Oliver sees the opportunity to train a human to provide him with a few creature comforts. And if he can help her adjust to her life and make a new friend, that's just all in a day's work. The real surprise comes, however, when Oliver needs Freckles just as much as she needs him. Not a comic book and not a traditional illustrated chapter book, <i>My Pet Human</i> is truly a hybrid of text and art that could only come from the whimsical and brilliant mind of Yasmine Surovec.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><i>My Pet Human</i> </p><p>"Cartoonist, picture-book author, and cat-channeler Surovec leaps into early chapter books with a cat's-eye view of life that will make a splendid introduction to longer fiction for young feline fanciers." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br><i></i><br><i></i>"Cat-loving kids, particularly emerging readers, will get a kick out of the feline narrator, as well as the heartening story of friendship." --<i>Booklist</i></p><p>"A sweet story for animal lovers and emergent readers, too." --<i>School Library Journal</i></p><p>"Surovec's simplified cartoons evoke the joys of pet ownership (even when the human is the pet)." --<i>Publisher's Weekly</i></p><br><br><p><i>My Pet Human</i> </p><p>"Cartoonist, picture-book author, and cat-channeler Surovec leaps into early chapter books with a cat's-eye view of life that will make a splendid introduction to longer fiction for young feline fanciers." <i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br><i></i><br><i></i> Cat-loving kids, particularly emerging readers, will get a kick out of the feline narrator, as well as the heartening story of friendship. <i>Booklist</i></p><p> A sweet story for animal lovers and emergent readers, too. <i>School Library Journal</i></p><p> Surovec's simplified cartoons evoke the joys of pet ownership (even when the human is the pet). <i>Publisher's Weekly</i></p>"<br><br><P>"My Pet Human" <P>"Cartoonist, picture-book author, and cat-channeler Surovec leaps into early chapter books with a cat's-eye view of life that will make a splendid introduction to longer fiction for young feline fanciers."
