Bookroo's summary

Janie Jane's world is turned upside down when her birthday gift, a puppy named Sir Yips-a-lot, becomes her best friend. But when her next birthday brings Lady Meow-meow, the world's cutest kitten, Sir Yips-a-lot worries he might lose his place in her heart. As jealousy brews, Janie must navigate her feelings and reassure her furry friends. Will Sir Yips-a-lot find his place alongside the new arrival, or will the cuteness competition drive them apart? This charming tale explores the challenges of sharing love and overcoming jealousy, especially for those with new siblings.

From the publisher

Cute kittens, cute puppies, and more! An explosion of cuteness tailor-made for “I Can Has Cheezburger” fans. Janie Jane’s life takes a turn for the cute when she receives an adorable puppy as a birthday present. She and Sir Yips-a-lot do everything together. But before you know it, it’s Janie’s birthday again and she’s got a new, potentially cuter present to unwrap: Lady Meow-meow, “The World’s Cutest Kitty.” Wait! Sir Yips-a-lot has always been the cute one in Janie Jane’s life. What if she doesn’t need him anymore? Michael Townsend has crafted a lighthearted romp that will help children–especially those with new siblings–recognize and overcome feelings of jealousy. From the Hardcover edition.
