But Lillian Rose is determined she wants a turtle. Her Mimi tells her that she had one at her age but does not give pet turtles glowing reviews. Still, Lillian Rose is determined.
Her wise Dad decides to take her to the huge pet store to see ALL the pets there. He advises her to think before choosing. When her teacher announces there will be a Show and Tell, Lillian Rose finally goes with her Dad and Mom and chooses her pet---a surprise ending as she takes it out of the box to show her classmates!
