Junior Pet Care books have been specially designed for both a child and parent to share the experience of caring for a pet. Each book has been authoritatively written, in consultation with both a veterinarian and renowned child psychologist, Dr. David Lewis. The clear, specially-commissioned photography and artwork have been included to appeal to children of age 7 or more. The lively, informative layout will inspire your child to read and learn. New words are gradually introduced and explained in the text, expanding your child's reading ability and vocabulary in the natural way. Junior Pet Care titles are fun to read and encourage parents to share and benefit from the experience of having a pet. Guinea Pigs covers all aspects of keeping a guinea pig. It deals with choosing and buying the right one for you and your child and goes on to explain how to clean, feed and care for it and how to keep it in tip-top condition all its life. Having a pet can play an important part in your child's normal development, helping to teach the child to give and accept affection and promoting a sense of responsibility. Guinea Pigs will help your child to understand this kind of commitment and make it enjoyable for both of you.
