What Pete Ate





by Maira Kalman

Been meaning to recommend this book for a while. I ordered it off Amazon because the title seemed relevant to our beloved pet. (The incident that sticks in the mind is a chewed lens cap on the day - the same day that the camera was bought! I'm over it now - kind of) It's an A-Z of every weird thing Pete (the dog) has eaten. The illustrations and text are really quirky with lots of asides and interesting characters. My favourite is the chewed up list that Rocky (a friend) keeps in his wallet, of all the times he was insulted his whole life. 'Personally' she says 'I am happy Pete did it.'

N loves it, and I have to say I'm actually pleased to see it being brought towards me!
