I thought this was appropriate to read to Ethan since we have just recently adopted a kitten! It teaches kids how to care for their pets & everyone needs some responsibility.

Trouble with Pets, along with most Berenstain Bear books, are best suited for age ten and younger. A great lesson on pet care mixed with the fun and familiar Berenstain family. I think these books are a great series for children to build their reading skills while reading about a familiar family.
