American Humane Association Pet Care series. Well-organized information follows through on these books titles, from a brief history of the animals as pets to picking the right type or breed, caring for it, and preventing problems. The tone is encouraging, though appropriate cautions are included. Colorful captioned photos illustrate text that is clear but not very deep; occasional vague statements are eventually clarified.
