As New as graded in hand, with the cover wear noted below disclosed in full. The book is complete, square and tight, and the interior is clean: pages white with no highlighting, underlining or writing seen, and no turned-down corners. The photographs do show light creasing and wrinkling to the cover and what looks like a slight crease along the spine, so the exterior reads as gently handled rather than untouched. Some show-through between pages is a characteristic of the paper stock, not damage. No library stamps, card pockets, spine labels or barcodes are present.

From beloved animal expert Temple Grandin, a fascinating exploration on how animals feel—essential reading for anyone who’s ever owned, cared for, or simply cared about an animal.
While it’s usually easy to pinpoint the cause of physical pain in animals, to know what’s causing them emotional distress is much harder. Drawing on the latest research and her own work, Grandin identifies the core emotional needs of animals. Then she explains how to fulfill them for dogs and cats, horses, farm animals, and zoo animals. Whether it’s how to make the healthiest environment for the dog you must leave alone most of the day, how to keep pigs from being bored, or how to know if the lion pacing in the zoo is miserable or just exercising, Grandin teaches us to challenge our assumptions about animal contentment and honor our bond with our fellow creatures.

Store description
For 15 years I've been an Oregon CPA, and for 10 of those I taught tax and accounting at the college level. But my proudest work has nothing to do with numbers: I homeschooled my daughter from preschool through freshman year and in September she will be starting the 10th grade - homeschooling. This season taught me a good book can shape how a child sees the world. Every title I choose has to engage young minds to think critically and navigate this world with real understanding. Every book has a story — but it only means something when a child lives it. Why Papa Duck? I was "Uncle Duck" to my nieces and nephews for years — duck pictures fill my office, Mallards are my favorite. When my grandson arrived last year, the family asked what he'd call me. There was only one answer. CPA by training, teacher by calling, homeschool dad by experience, Papa Duck by love.…
