The Pet War

The realistic fiction book The Pet War written by Allan Woodrow is a fantastic book about a war between getting a cat or a dog. Otto, a not so perfect eleven year old boy, battles his straight A perfect older sister Lexi. Otto lives in a family where nothing really happens until one day he asks his mom if he could get a dog. His sister Lexi, just to defy him, says that she wants a cat. They both run a campaign against each other to raise $500 to by the animal first. It's a race to the finish. My opinion of this book is five stars. I loved this book because it kept me interesting like when otto got fired and the dogs ran away when he was playing soccer. Also I found it unexpecting that booth of them did not raise an of munny to get a pet. -Ryan
