Description

Hi! I'm Juliet. I'm ten years old. And I'm nearly a vet! Chelsea and I go to such a cool school - we get to have playground pets! Guineas pigs, lizards, fish and insects are all part of our classroom. This week, we have a replacement teacher though, and Miss Fine doesn't know much about animals. But we do (it's so handy being nearly a vet). We're going to be flat-out keeping track of them all and doing our schoolwork, but I'm sure nothing will go too wrong...
