Reviews

...coming in under 100 pages it's packed with things to discuss.-- "So I'm Fifty blog"
I liked that Kyle, Mia and Emma discussed a variety of pets that fit the criteria and didn't just zero in on one type of pet right away. This way, kids who have the same issue as Emma can use this as a sort-of guide when choosing a pet.-- "Second Bookshelf on the Right blog"
I thought this was a really cute book that had several positive messages. I loved the fact that the kids were taking the time to investigate and explore the world of no-sneeze pets.-- "NetGalley Review"
I would recommend this book for children from age 5 to age 8. The text is not too challenging for early readers or too simplified for more advanced readers. It is a low level reading book, but will be grabbed by animals lovers.-- "Texas Library Lady...Reading Through Life blog"
The illustrations are great!-- "NetGalley Review"
The story is cute and perfect for young, new readers. It has a good message and great pictures.-- "River Readers blog"
This is a cute early chapter book. . . .there are some fun animal facts your kids could pick up by reading it. It also helps kids understand how to make responsible choices when it comes to purchasing a pet.-- "Books for Kids blog"
This is a great book to read before adopting a pet. There are discussion questions that focus on the care and responsibility of animals and you can see some other animals than the typical cat and dog. . . .All in all this is a cute book!-- "Books Beside My Bed blog"
This is a really nicely illustrated book, that I believe any 2nd-4th grader would be able to enjoy. . . .I think this series has wonderful potential.-- "Just One More Chapter blog"
