Rikki did not want to move or leave her cousin behind. Her new house is lovely, and her room is beautiful, but everything feels different.

There is a new neighborhood and a new baby sister. All Rikki wanted for her birthday was a puppy. That promise made things feel a little easier.

However, the lease states that no pets are allowed. Rikki feels heartbroken, but her parents do not give up. Instead, they find a different kind of surprise. It is not a puppy.

Her parents take her to ButterflyLand, where she receives a host plant with live caterpillars. As Rikki cares for her new pets, she discovers the magic of metamorphosis and the butterfly life cycle. In addition, she learns how caring for living creatures can bring unexpected joy. This interactive book includes a Counting to 10 Challenge, ten real butterfly varieties to identify, the name of an actual host plant, educational science content, and a community birthday party that brings neighbors together.

A warm and honest story for ages 4 to 13, this kids activity coloring book about pets explores promises, change, and how love sometimes means finding a new way forward. Look for the original storybook, “Rikki Wants A Pet,” which features vibrant, colorful illustrations set against real-world photographs.
