From School Library Journal
Gr 1-4-These simple guides to pet care cover feeding, cleaning, housing, handling, and grooming, as well as vacation and health care. Written from the pet's perspective, the books lead readers through the pet ownership process, offering guidance through sentences that often begin with "Don't forget..." and "Before you...." Positive features are balanced with concerns about care and behavior. A cautionary note on the many responsibilities that come with pet ownership is included. Animal shelters and rescue centers are recommended in the "Choosing Your (Animal name here)" chapter. Illustrations are a combination of lighthearted, if lackluster, cartoon artwork and include footprints of the pet in question that lead kids from page to page and photos with somewhat jarring pieces of masking tape superimposed along their edges. Lists of facts and tips conclude each book. Useful and child-friendly introductions to pet ownership.α(c) Copyright 2014. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Titles in the Pets Guides series teach young readers how to care responsibly for their chosen pet. However, in a unique spin, each book is written from the point of view of one of the animals themselves, thus also allowing the books to be used to teach perspective. In this book, Squeak the Mouse reveals how readers should go about choosing pet rats or mice, what supplies they will need, how to make a new pet rat or mouse feel at home, and how to properly care for pet rats or mice, including feeding, exercising, and keeping cages clean. Text in the book is accompanied by clear, labelled photographs to further reinforce key concepts. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR010134143
