Our cute but clueless heroine will crack you up, or rather the cat’s face will crack you up as you watch her both try to name and dress up her new kitty, find a new temporary pet from the zoo (!) when her cat disappears, and then that goes poorly and luckily her cat comes back with some new name information. I Don’t Know What to Call My Cat by Simon Philip, illustrated by Ella Bailey

Guess what is the best fit for him? Being a pet rabbit for Sophie! A sweet story of finding your place with cool collage illustrations. His list: wild rabbit, veggie farmer, and pet rabbit. So he sets out to figure out what else he can do. Herb is a magician’s rabbit and he’s sick of it - sick of getting pulled by his ears out of a hat, sick of the applause, sick of the hat. Finally, he settles on a small, cute dinosaur that doesn’t eat as much as some of the others. In an introduction to different kinds of dinosaurs, each one he picks, he’s not happy with. SO FUN! This boy wants a pet dinosaur from the Dinosaurium. The Wonderous Dinosaurium by John Condon, illustrated by Steve Brown What a helpful cautionary tale!
