One day on his tenth birthday his father lets him get a dog from Easy Pets, a rent a dog agency [his parents keep this truth from him] a mongrel and a boy look into each others eyes and Hal knows that he has found his best friend for life.

The Story of Doctor Dolittle (Random House Modern Classics)
By Hugh Lofting
The Story of Doctor Dolittle, by Hugh Lofting, teaches about tolerance. Dr. Dollitle is a doctor who can speak animal languages and loves animals, but he has so many animals that his sister left and he became poor. He didn’t mind, though, because he still had his animals. After some time, a swallow came and told the doctor that he needed to cure some monkeys in africa. He didn’t have enough money, but he borrowed a boat and supplies from people who knew that he was a good doctor. After a while, he cured the monkeys and went back home. The animals also showed him the pushmi-pullyu, an animal which has two heads. He earned enough money showing people it that he had enough for a while. I recommend this classical book for boys and girls, grades third to sixth.

Belly Up (FunJungle)
By Stuart Gibbs
I read this book because I really loved Stuart Gibbs other series spy school and moon base alpha. It is a pretty good book about a kid who lives on a zoo that his mom and dad work for. He knows all the in and outs and has settled on playing pranks because he gets pretty bored sometimes. So when the zoo's mascot henry the hippo mysteriously dies one day and he sneaks into the autopsy and finds out the death might not be of natural causes, he decides to investigate. It was a pretty good book however I found that the plot was the exact same as Stuart Gibbs' other book, Space Case. There were so many things that were the same! I was shocked! If you have read both books please comment if you noticed this too, and if you can find all the things that are the same!
