"Piper wishes she could have a pet to care for and snuggle with and take to school for Show and Tell. All of the other kids have one. But she's allergic to every animal imaginable! So instead, she makes her own pet out of slime, with big eyes, a little mouth, and two arms just long enough for hugs. It would be the perfect pet for Piper, if it were real. When a strange turn of events brings her slime to life, Piper learns how fun, challenging, and messy it can be to care for a pet--especially one made out of slime! At the back of the book, learn about real-life slime and follow the recipe to create a "pet" of your own!"--
