About this title

From School Library Journal

Kindergarten-Grade 5?Two browsing books for animal lovers, especially those seeking a new pet. Clear lettering, sharply focused full-color photographs, and an oversized but manageable format make for books that are both useful and usable. Fluffy kittens and fuzzy puppies sit, snooze, and cavort across the two-page spreads. The large photographs are displayed against white backgrounds, leaving plenty of uncluttered space for blocks of informative text. Contents include a chapter on newborns as well as a peek at the different breeds, colors, and coat variations that can be found in cats and dogs around the world. The final chapters address choosing and caring for one's own kitten or puppy, but pet care is not either book's main focus. Rather, these are attractive books that will serve as enticing introductions to the appealing, highly varied worlds of these traditional pets.?Lisa Wu Stowe, Great Neck Library, NY
