Sasspants, Hamisher, and company have never had it so good, but Mr Venezi is not a very good store owner. The pets aren’t actually for sale, he keeps mistaking bills for fan mail, his stuff doesn’t really sell and there may be a dragon living in the shop. Can the pet save Mr. Venezi’s shop? Is there really a dragon living in the shop?


The story is cute and well-developed. The illustrations are funny, eye-catching, and complement the text well. Readers who like guinea pigs, pets, and dragons will enjoy reading this book.
