If I Could... Be a Pet! by Shona Darin is an educational and amusing picture book for young children. If your child could do with a confidence boost, or they simply need a good book to read before bed, then this could be the one. A young boy fantasizes about what it would be like if he was a pet. If he was a puppy, he'd take long snoozy naps, and if he was a bunny, he would much on yummy veggies and other snacks. But no matter how much fun it would be, being one of the many cool pets out there, the boy knows that he is who he is meant to be.

If I Could... Be a Pet! was a wonderful book to read. Children are going to enjoy every page, whilst also soaking up every ounce of positivity the author has poured into it. Shona Darin has created the ideal book for young children, and it will serve as a huge pick-me-up. Shona has also used rhyme to tell her story, and it makes the reading experience that much more enjoyable. I am confident children will both be educated and entertained whilst reading and their attention will be hooked on the adorable illustrations by the talented Anne Zimanski. The hamster was my favorite. I highly recommend this book to anyone with children. Shona is a great children's author and I can't wait to see what she comes up with next. Good luck with your future creations.
