Because so many other people lived in her apartment building, Julia wasn't allowed to have a dog (too noisy) or a cat (too smelly). She really wanted a pet to cuddle and love. Her mom said she could have a goldfish, but Julia knew goldfish weren't very cuddly. Julia's neighbor told her and her mommy about how she also lived in an apartment when she was a little girl and had a pet rabbit. The very next day, Julia's parents took her to a pet shop to adopt a bunny. She was so excited. One fuzzy black one licked her nose! That was certainly the bunny she wanted to take home.

About the Book
Because so many other people lived in her apartment building, Julia isn’t allowed to have a dog (too noisy) or a cat (too smelly). She really wants a pet to cuddle and love. Her mom says she can have a goldfish, but Julia knows goldfish weren’t very cuddly. Julia’s neighbor told her and her mommy the story of how she also lived in an apartment when she was a little girl and had a very unique pet—a cuddly pet rabbit. The very next day, Julia’s parents take her to a pet shop to adopt a bunny. One fuzzy black one licks her nose! That is certainly the bunny she wants to take home. Julia names her bunny Boo, and she begins to learn the challenges of being a pet owner. Boo proves to be a bit ornery, but even so Julia finds she has a soft, cuddly friend to love. Then, her parents decide to make a big change in their lives. What will that change mean for Julia and Boo?
