Igor and Mom

In preparation for the fifth-grade science fair, ten-year-old Jason trains his large green iguana, Igor, to run to his food dish at the sound of a bell. While Jason is showing his experiment to Mom, who is frightened of the green creature, Igor escapes. Mom ends up finding & capturing Igor while Jason is at school & gets the iguana to the science room in time for the judging. However, Igor doesn't answer the bell & fails to win the blue ribbon that Jason has been coveting. At three o'clock, the school bell rings & Igor runs to his dish. Jason laughs & decides the green honorable mention ribbon matches his pet better anyway.Rowan, Barbara C. is the author of 'Igor and Mom', published 1991 under ISBN 9780962286322 and ISBN 096228632X.
