The Night Before the New Pet

There's a new pet on the way—the moment every kid dreams of!

It's the night before the adoption of a puppy and the whole family can hardly wait. Everyone helps prepare: they buy treats, set up a crate, and discuss what they should name the pet. When they get to the shelter, they see all kinds of dogs — until they spot the perfect one for them. But a last-minute surprise makes things twice as exciting!Natasha Wing (www.natashawing.wordpress.com) lives in Fort Collins, Colorado. Her first book with Grosset, The Night Before Easter, was published in 1999, and since then she has created a best-selling series that has sold more than 5 million copies.
