Grownups make no sense at all

They're nuts about babies, but they tell their 9-year-olds to be more mature. They complain constantly about how old they are, and then they tell their kids to grow up. So when Iggy's mom and dad say he can't have a puppy because he's not mature and responsible, Iggy develops an excellent plan to prove them wrong.

Like any great plan, it involves secrecy, strategy, and a chinchilla.

There's also some screaming, but that's not Iggy's fault.

Is there a puppy, too? You'll have to read the book to find out.
