Melissa's Octopus and Other Unsuitable Pets by Charlotte Voake

Melissa's Octopus and Other Unsuitable Pets by Charlotte Voake

Melissa, Thomas, Betty, and Arthur have one thing in common: extremely unsuitable pets! An exuberant book packed with visual humor.

There are certain animals that make suitable pets, like a cat, a dog, or a guinea pig. Then there are others that make, well, unusual pets, like an octopus, a warthog, or an elephant. They're too large, too messy, and maybe a tad too free-spirited with a tendency to break things like tables, floors, and even ceilings. But can you guess what makes the most unsuitable pet ever?

Chris Butterworth is the author of Sea Horse, illustrated by John Lawrence; See What a Seal Can Do, illustrated by Kate Nelms; and How Did That Get in My Lunchbox? and the other titles in the Exploring the Everyday series, illustrated by Lucia Gaggiotti. She lives in Cornwall, England.

Charlotte Voake is the author-illustrator of Ginger, which was short-listed for the Kate Greenaway Medal; Ginger Finds a Home; and Hello Twins, a New York Times Book Review Best Illustrated Children's Book of the Year. She is also the illustrator of Charlotte Zolotow's Say It!, Steve Voake's Insect Detective, and Vivian French's Caterpillar, Caterpillar. Charlotte Voake lives in Surrey, England.
