Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreS Up-- Any parent and/or child thinking about getting a pet should consult these publications before making a choice. Evans introduces the essentials of pet care in an easily accessible format that is fun to look at and read. Information about each animal's natural habitat is included, as is a description of different breeds and a fascinating pictorial depiction of what might happen when different breeds mix and produce offspring. Sharp, full-color photos show the necessities for proper feeding, grooming, and housing of pets, and offer instruction in how to hold and examine them for general good health. The author recommends seeing a veterinarian for general checkups and also when the animals are ill. There is a wealth of positive information presented in a matter-of-fact manner; it is made abundantly clear that pets are hard work and a great deal of responsibility. In all cases the emphasis is on responsible care for creatures that depend entirely on humans. --Carole B. Kirkpatrick, Terminal Park Elementary School, Auburn, WA
