In this second chapter book in the Minnie & Daisy B.F.F. series, there isn't a sport on the planet that Daisy Duck doesn't like. So when she takes her first surfing lesson, she falls in love with wave-riding immediately and becomes determined to buy her very own surfboard. The only problem is, surfboards are expensive! So when Daisy hears that her neighbor needs a pet-sitter, she volunteers eagerly, thinking that it will be an easy way to jumpstart her surfboard savings fund. But as it turns out, this is no ordinary pet-sitting job. Daisy's furry charge turns out to be a sugar glider, and while the little guy may look adorable, he turns out to be quite the handful. Daisy soon realizes that she is in way over her head, so she calls in her BFF, Minnie, for reinforcements. Can the two of them hold down the fort until Daisy's neighbor gets home?

Marion Nestle, acclaimed author of Food Politics, now tells the gripping story of how, in early 2007, a few telephone calls about sick cats set off the largest recall of consumer products in U.S. history and an international crisis over the safety of imported goods ranging from food to toothpaste, tires, and toys. Nestle follows the trail of tainted pet food ingredients back to their source in China and along the supply chain to their introduction into feed for pigs, chickens, and fish in the United States, Canada, and other countries throughout the world. What begins as a problem "merely" for cats and dogs soon becomes an issue of tremendous concern to everyone. Nestle uncovers unexpected connections among the food supplies for pets, farm animals, and people and identifies glaring gaps in the global oversight of food safety.
