A hilariously unbelievable story about things not quite going to plan, from the author of Neil, the Amazing Sea Cucumber.

On her birthday, Frankie blows out her candles and finally gets her wish - a puppy!

But the puppy sets off a chaotic chain of events involving a hungry python, the fire brigade and one surprised stray cat.
It sure is lucky that Frankie always looks on the bright side!

Her other books include Bad Crab, My Bird Bertie, Who Fed Zed?, Mary Had a Little Lamb: What Really Happened and Neil, The Amazing Sea Cucumber.
