Will a young boy convince the mayor of New York City to let him bring his friend—a saber-toothed cat—to the Big Apple? An imaginative narrative brings readers to iconic New York landmarks, as Saber shows Ms. Mayor just how helpful a feline friend can be. A humorous follow-up to Can I Bring Woolly to the Library, Ms. Reeder? and Can I Bring My Pterodactyl to School, Ms. Johnson?
Lois Grambling is the author of more than twenty books for children, including Can I Bring Woolly to the Library, Ms. Reeder? and Can I Bring My Pterodactyl to School, Ms. Johnson? Lois lives in New York.
If I brought Saber to New York City on our class trip, we’d visit the 151-foot-tall Statue of Liberty, the symbol of our freedom and one of the most famous women in America. Saber knows it must be tough working for such a bustling city, Ms. Mayor, so he’d be happy to help you and Lady Liberty greet all the visitors at the statue.
