This one of those books that is short and doesn't really have a great story line but it has great characters, narration and pictures. This is the book of a restaurant owner and of all the animals that he has to say no because they are not allowed although in the end he changes his mind and makes his restaurant open to all people and animal around.LE: after the story, ask the children if they have been somewhere where they weren't allowed to bring in their pets. After the discussion give them paper, glue, scissors, construction paper, and other crafting materials and ask them to create their own place like store, restaurant, hotel etc and who they would let in. Synopsis: Alberto is the proud, new owner of a restaurant in the middle of town. Though he really looks forward to helping customers, he continues to tighten the requirements for the types of guests. In the beginning, a child and his dog approach the restaurant, hoping to order food. When they attempt to order from the waiter, he turns them away, because he doesn't want to serve a dog. He then proceeds to write on his 'chalkboard' sign: "No Dogs Allowed!" Another child comes to the restaurant, looking to get a good meal with her pet cat. When the waiter sees the little girl with a cat, he refuses to serve her and adds to the sign, "No Dogs and Cats Allowed!" As the day progresses, the opportunity arises that the owner and waiter has a chance to have his first customer, yet he has continuously passed them all up with his ever-increasing, generic standards of "No animals allowed". By the day's end, the chalkboard is overflowing with a peculiar animal variety of each pet that an owner has attempted to bring to the restaurant, but whose service was eventually turned away. The customers, after all congregating in the town circle, decided to go over to the Restaurant at the end to give him service, despite his bad behavior toward them in the beginning. Everyone
