The book's cover does call her ‘The girl in a whirl who can’t stay still!’. And, that does help explain all the zip-zap-zoom in the book.
Bridget Fidget wants a pet. So when a smaller-than-expected package arrives at home, Bridget decides to settle for a penguin instead of a unicorn. Underneath all the packaging material is a smaller box. So it’s just the right size for a mouse which she thinks ought to make a great pet.
Her great dreams come crashing down when her dad opens the box. Or is there still hope? :-)

Excerpt
This box wouldn't open.
Bridget sniffed it. It didn't smell.
Bridget shook it. It didn't squeak.
Bridget rolled it. It didn't skitter.
