Summary
"Learn everything there is to know about pets of all kinds, and the many different ways to take care of them to give them the happiest life possible. In this ultimate guide to pets, whether you've got them or not, children will enjoy learning lots about the different animals that we might think of as pets, including their history, behavior, and body language. Discover practical things to do with pets, such as how to treat them kindly, look after their everyday needs, and give them the best life possible. With author and vet Dr Jess French, delve deeper into the world of pets than you ever have before! The best thing is, you don't even need a pet to enjoy them. Pets and Their People provides inspiration for kids aged 7-9 who can't own pets, showing them that we can care for animals in lots of other ways - from volunteering at animal shelters to leaving food for them out in the wild. From old favorites such as playful puppies and cuddly cats, to more unusual pets such as lizards and snakes, to bugs and hedgehogs in parks and gardens, there are many fascinating animals to meet."--, Provided by publisher
