Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

For those animal lovers less inclined to adopt a furry friend, finding up-to-date reptile information and ownership instruction can be a challenge. Karen Rosenthal's The Iguana: An Owner's Guide to a Happy, Healthy Pet is both a perfect start for any new or potential owner and a quality-of-care check for seasoned owners. The Iguana covers everything from selecting an ectotherm and understanding its environmental needs to discussions on behavior and a glossary of relevant terminology. While the book is solid in content, it is always a good idea to investigate other resources for further discussion on controversial issues such as protein intake levels and keeping iguanas as free-roaming house pets. Rosenthal's book helps with this as well, and the bibliography is a great springboard to continued exploration.


Product Description

At last, a book about this special lizard that emphasizes total care and companionship! You'll not only learn about specific traits of your iguana, like its needs for light and heat, you'll learn what the world's like from your pet's perspective. Best of all, the book is filled with color photos, info-packed sidebars and fun facts to make caring for your pet easy and enjoyable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't buy it, February 10, 2003
By A Customer
I agree completely with Harmony's review of this book. I recently purchased it at a pet store and returned it within an hour of buying it. The information is outdated and inaccurate. James Hatfield'd "Green Iguana-The Ultimate Owner's Manual" is superior by far, purchase this instead.
