Animal Stories

by Holly Webb

Children who grow up caring for animals and thinking about their needs develop a greater compassion for the world around them. Each of these sweet, easy-to-read chapter books stars an irresistible furry friend that will touch the hearts of young readers everywhere. A stolen lab puppy is rescued from dog thieves by his determined little owner. A Jack Russell terrier without a home meets a young dog walker who changes his life. A silly spaniel convinces a kitten that a dog and a cat can get along. You may not be able to adopt every lonely pet at the shelter, but you can let children discover what a difference a little love can make with these seven touching stories—each offering a reassuring message about the importance of family and friendship. A must-have collection for young animal lovers.
