From the Back Cover:
A pet rat is called a fancy rat. Many people love their pet rats. They are smaller, calmer, and friendlier than wild rats. Fancy rats come in different varieties. Some have curly hair or large ears. Others don’t have any hair. And some don’t have tails! Their fur may have different colors and patterns. They love attention and form strong bonds with their owners, which is one reason they are such popular pets. Learn all about these unique, inquisitive creatures and see if a rat may be the right pet for you!

From School Library Journal:
Gr 2-4-This collection of exotic pets introduces these animals, covering history, natural habitat, care, and characteristics both positive and negative. Restrictions on ownership and any special housing and health care requirements are carefully pointed out. The animals' personalities are described, and information on bonding and communication is provided. A short list of "Things to Think About..." encapsulates all the issues and concludes each book. Supplementary material includes a nicely organized set of "Before & After Reading Activities" and "Show What You Know" questions that can be used for reading comprehension instruction. Photos frequently incorporate humans along with the animals. Each volume includes a spread with a full-body shot of the animal with body parts and physical traits identified. "Fun Fact" and "Pet Pointer" boxes appear where needed. VERDICT Well written, with a clean design, these titles will be useful for educators and popular with potential pet owners.α(c) Copyright 2011.
