This sturdy non-fiction picture book is a wonderful introduction to puppies and kittens.  The pages are thick to hold up well to the many little hands that will surely be turning them for years to come.  A good introduction to these common pets, topics include early development, care, training, safety, and playing.  The text is clearly written and large and is nicely balanced with plenty of adorable color photographs with a large variety of cat and dog breeds represented.  This will be a wonderful addition to our easy non-fiction section of the library.
