I appreciate that the first option with pets is adoption。 So many pets already need homes so that is a good first place to look。

Son's Review（Age: 4 and 1/2）The best thing about Book of Pets:The best thing about this book is this。 You want to know it？ It is the games！ The games！Something interesting he learned:Something interesting I learned is that squirrels make good pets。 *mischievous smile*（This is blatantly false。 The difference between wild animals and pets is detailed， but T and I had great debates about the possibility of a wild squirrel as a pet。 T thinks he has convinced me that it is possible。）What this book is Son's Review（Age: 4 and 1/2）The best thing about Book of Pets:The best thing about this book is this。 You want to know it？ It is the games！ The games！Something interesting he learned:Something interesting I learned is that squirrels make good pets。 *mischievous smile*（This is blatantly false。 The difference between wild animals and pets is detailed， but T and I had great debates about the possibility of a wild squirrel as a pet。 T thinks he has convinced me that it is possible。）What this book is all about:This book is all about animals。 Like it tells about animals。 Like dogs and cats and rabbits。One of the most challenging games。Mom's ReviewOther people's pets。Floyd says: "I'll eat your spinachif you take me home， T！"Little Kids First Big Book of Pets is exactly what it sounds like: an introduction to the topic of pets。 Bold photographs， short paragraphs， and basic information make this idea for little kids。 If you have a family pet already， some information will be redundant， but it is delightful nonetheless。 We don't have a pet， but we do like other people's， and T goes to farm school， so he was happy to tell me， "I know that！" or "That bird is just like Floyd！" as we read。 We learned a bit， reinforced knowledge， and had fun。 （We skipped the snake section though。 I didn't want to learn about them， and I don't find them fun in the least。） The best part for T， by far， was the game at the end of each chapter。I can think of two situations where Little Kids First Big Book of Pets would be a perfect fit。 First， if your little kid loves learning about animals， particularly if you have a pet you'd like to read about。 Second， if you have a kiddo who is a bit of a reluctant reader but likes looking at pictures of animals。 This is a great one to page through and just enjoy the photographs。Our experience has been a bit of both， me reading to T about animals， and him looking at the pictures independently。 As soon as we opened the mail and pulled out this book， T was flipping through， saying， "Awww。 So cute！" to the puppies and guinea pigs。 He has been content to peruse Big Book of Pets on his own numerous times since then。 When we've read it together， we jump around， reading about the animals he is most interested in （puppies， hairless cats， and enormous dogs）， until he eagerly finds the game。Why we chose this book:We enjoyed Little Kids First Big Book of Science， so I expected that a similar book about one of our favorite topics （animals） would be a win。 A review copy was provided in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

I think perhaps that "Parent's Little Kids First Book of Pets" might be a bit more appropriate for a title。 True， the book is intended to instruct young children about pets and which kind of pet constitutes being a candidate as a pet and what pet might be most appropriate for him or her。Folks， parents need some real guidance in the matter of selecting a pet for their child。 They need to address issues such as"What pet will not HARM my child？""What pet will MY CHILD not HARM？""What pet can my chi I think perhaps that "Parent's Little Kids First Book of Pets" might be a bit more appropriate for a title。 True， the book is intended to instruct young children about pets and which kind of pet constitutes being a candidate as a pet and what pet might be most appropriate for him or her。Folks， parents need some real guidance in the matter of selecting a pet for their child。 They need to address issues such as"What pet will not HARM my child？""What pet will MY CHILD not HARM？""What pet can my child learn to actually care for？""What pet will render love toward my child？" "What are traits of this specific animal？"And the list could go on and on。Little Kids First Big Book of Pets has a fantastic array of photographs that capture anyone's attention whether a young child or an older person。 And the instruction within these 100plus pages is first rate and so very valuable。Early in the book， the "this is NOT a pet type animal" is beautifully presented， and the reasons why that specific animal is not suitable helps the child to understand the purpose of wild critters and why they should remain free in the wild。 Love this part！ And then all types of information such as how and where you can find a pet for yourself （or your child）， how to care for the pet， doctors for pets， etc。 Lots of good information。The book covers the plethora of pets and you can learn about the various types of pets: Dogs， Cats， and a mixture of the assorted types of pets （fish， crabs， hamsters， birds）。 Such good information。 In the major categories the information about different breeds of specific animal types - dog breeds， cat breeds， etc。 is very helpful and will lead in your decision making。Sometimes the easiest choice of a pet in a small home or for other good reasons， is a fish。So， I truly believe parents need this book。 Older kids need this book。 Younger children will love the book and the pictures。 I found this book to be one I can highly recommend。DISCLOSURE: I received a complimentary copy to facilitate this review。 Opinions are mine alone and are freely given。 。。。more
