My Pet Feet provides readers with a glimpse of what the world would be like without the letter R.  A young girl awakens to greet her pet ferret, Doodles, who has now been turned into her pet ‘feet’ since the letter R is missing from the alphabet displayed on her wall. She sets out to find out what happened to the missing letter but the town is in R-less chaos. She has to escape many silly R-less obstacles such as a policewoman on a galloping hose, a fiend instead of her friend Lucas, and a flock of cows (crows with cow bodies). She climbs a cane (crane) to escape the pandemonium when Doodles runs away to help lead the way to the R thieves.

I highly recommend this book for young elementary students. The play on words provides an effortless opportunity to build letter knowledge and phonological awareness with young readers. Young readers will also enjoy searching the colorful illustrations to find all of the R-less mayhem like the motorcycle driving on ties rather than tires.
