Tiger Taming (The Pet Sitter)

Tiger Taming (The Pet Sitter)

by Julie Sykes (Author), Nathan Reed (Illustrator)

Synopsis

Max loves animals, but his sneezy, allergic sister means no family pets. He's so happy when he realizes he can be a pet sitter. But with every job he takes on, there's always something a bit odd about his new boss. Witches, fairies, goblins, mermaids - why can't he pet-sit for someone ordinary?

Max thinks he is going to love his new job as a pet sitter. But his first client, Miss W. Itchy, seems a little strange. Max's instincts prove correct when it turns out her cat can talk! Not only does Tiger have good English, but loads of attitude too - ordering Max around, left, right and centre. When Miss Itchy's arch-enemy Grimboots kidnaps Tiger, Max has to prove what sort of pet sitter he really is . . .
