A Promise Is a Promise by Florence Parry Heide, Tony Auth
3.0

Age: 3-6
Media: watercolor and ink

A great familiar story when a child is getting a new pet or already has one. George finally gets his parents to agree to get a pet but he keeps bringing home animals that frighten or annoy his parents. When his parents finally promise that he may get a bird, George brings home a loud, talking parrot. The pictures work wonderfully with the humor and the movement of the plot.
