Bookroo's summary

Cassie Tyler's first graders embark on a field trip to the Animal Inn, a bustling pet resort. With dogs, cats, birds, and even a goldfish named Blub, the day promises unexpected adventures. As the class meets the quirky residents, including a chatty macaw and playful gerbils, the students discover the joys and surprises of this unique animal haven. Will the kids manage the chaos, or will the animals steal the show? Dive into a world where fur and feathers fly, and every moment is a chance for laughter and learning.

From the publisher

Cassie Tyler’s first grade class visits the Animal Inn in this third zany novel in a brand-new chapter book series where the fur–and fun–flies at an animal spa and hotel. The Animal Inn is an all-inclusive pet resort/hotel/center/spa for animals from dogs to rabbits, cats to ducks, parrots to lizards. From doggie and kitty daycare, to grooming, and group play–you name it, and the Animal Inn has it. The Inn is run by the Tyler family along with their pets Leopold, the Macaw; Fuzzy and Furry, the gerbils; dogs Dash and Coco; felines Shadow and Whiskers; and a rollicking horde of animal visitors. Cassie Tyler’s first grade class is so excited to take a field trip to Animal Inn for a meet and greet. And it’s a furry good time for all–even for the newest classmate, a goldfish named Blub!
