Far-Out and Unusual Pets series. This series touches on how to live with and care for oddball pets. The volumes are enhanced by many photographs and some humorous cartoon illustrations. The authors try hard to invigorate the texts with kid-friendly language ("A pot-bellied pig is a really cool pet"); it's sometimes a strain. "Far Out!" sidebars give more information.
