“Particularly noteworthy is the series’ emphasis on personal involvement with a pet–the authors make it plain that pets need a good deal more than just food and water. The design is nicely varied, and there are plenty of eye-catching photos to make these pets hard to resist. Kids won’t go wrong if they begin their research here.”

"This series is truly fun, if not amazing!…The pictures are engaging as well as accurate and relevant. Most animals are shown engaging in behaviors that would be seen in the wild and the colors are exceptionally vibrant and crisp."
