Liz's home is a zoo, literally. With turtles in the kitchen and a ferret named Fred, her life is anything but normal. Nicknamed 'Lizard' at school, Liz faces ridicule and isolation. Desperate to win the class presidency, she decides the animals must go. But as she navigates one disaster after another, Liz wonders if losing her beloved creatures is worth the cost. Can she find a way to balance her unique life and her ambitions, or will she discover that some things are more important than winning?
Liz’s house is like a zoo. Thanks to her dad, a zoologist, there are turtles in the kitchen, an ibex in the backyard, a hawk in the shed, a sun porch full of lizards– and Fred the ferret. Liz has had enough! At school, her nickname is Lizard. Her classmates think she’s weird and her friends are afraid to go to her house. With problems like those, how is she ever going to win the election for class president? Liz tries her hardest, but she runs into one disaster after another. So she makes the startling decision– the animals must go. Even Fred, her pet ferret. That will make all the difference in the world… won’t it?
