She's been wishing for a dog for years—and in part wants one now because she feels she's the odd one out in her family as her parents are worried about the new baby on the way and her younger twin brothers have each other to entertain themselves. She picks out the perfect puppy——and then promptly breaks out in hives and itching. Come to find out she's severely allergic to pet dander—meaning everything with fur or feathers, which is devastating for the Animal Lover Maggie is. Now all Maggie wants to do is outwit her allergies and find the perfect pet for her—one way or another. | |

Secret Pet Plot: Maggie tries to hide a pet mouse in her closet (that she and her best friend Claire worked together to buy her). It fails not only because of Maggie's severe animal allergies, but because Pipsqueak had babies and her brothers blurt the secret out to their grandma. Maggie is made to give the mice back to the pet store, with her mother very upset that she was sold a pregnant mouse in the first place. | |

Covers Always Lie: Minor, but the dog shown on the cover of the book is only seen during Maggie's attempt to adopt them—shortly before she finds out she's allergic, and thus is never seen again. The dog that does later show up, Claire's puppy Lucky, is brown. | |

Artistic License – Animal Care: Maggie keeps her mouse Pipsqueak in a cage much too small for a mouse—and later much too small for her and eleven baby mice. Justified in that she's trying to hide Pipsqueak so her parents don't find out she's got a pet. | |

Always Identical Twins | |

Always Identical Twins: Maggie's younger brothers, Liam and Noah, are identical twins who in her opinion only pay attention to each other and are seen together practically through the entire book. This wouldn't stand out, except this is partially Deconstructed when, on the night their mom is away giving birth, Liam admits to Maggie that sometimes Noah can be overwhelming and he'd like time with his sister too. She's later shown treating them a little more like individuals. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Allergic (Comic Book) / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Sebastian tries to say hi to Maggie in passing when she's first called to the office to go get her first allergy shot, but she storms past him in a mood. He's later revealed to have an allergy himself—to eggs—and it's clear he was trying to bond with her over having allergies. Maggie's first attempt at a non-furry pet—a fish—goes poorly, and the fish dies. Fish are also seen in the background of the pet store where Maggie and Claire buy her pet mouse, but they avoid them. After baby June is born and Maggie goes to the aquarium with her mom, she decides she wants to study marine biology and gets a new aquarium in her room with the perfect pet—fish. This time she knows what to do to care for them properly. Maggie, when naming baby mice with her best friend Claire, decides the name June just isn't fitting for a mouse. At the end, this name is given to her new little sister. Maggie complains that her parents have been promising to take her to the beach for three years and haven't yet. They do the June after baby June is born, and this is where Maggie decides she wants to become a marine biologist. | |
