Kids Books - Animals

I think this a cute book. A great way to spend free time!

Thank you, DOGOBooks! I won a copy of Zeus the Mighty: Book 3, The Trails of the Hairy-Clees and wanted to share how this is a great third installment of the series. From the first two books in the series you meet an overly obnoxious and confident hamster name Zeus. Along with his friends, book 3 takes you on another hilarious adventure all the while providing some great Greek myths in a light read. In book 3, the animal Olympians are listening to a podcast about Heracles and how he had to perform different labors. This leads to a new addition to the storyline, Hermes, a rescued hen, wanting to be a member of the Olympians. Zeus, Athena, Ares, Poseidon, and Demeter all agreeing the best way to have Hermes join is by performing “Hairy-Clees’ labors”. I enjoyed the comical dialogue and it is an easy to read book for older lower school to middle school kids who like animals and enjoy mythology.

"Rain Reign" is a sad but moving story. Ann M. Martin, the author is one of my favorite writers and all of her books are amazing. This one definitely didn't disappoint. Meet Rose Howard, a fifth-grader who is obsessed with homonyms, rules, and prime numbers. She lives in a small town with just her father and uncle, and suffers from sever autism. Due to her inability to interact well with other humans, her best friends is her dog, Rain, who her father found at the back of his pub one night. They live a quiet, content life, until a Hurricane Susan hits leaving total destruction in it's wake. Worst yet, Rain, her longtime companion is missing. But the hunt the finding her dog might lead to much more. The books starts out slow because the first part is mostly just background information, but after the hurricane hits it gets exciting so just stick with it. I have to admit the main character was a little annoying at first but she grows on you. Overall, it is a sweet story like "Out of my Mind" or "Wonder" that will leave you in tears.

LOVE this book I didn't think it would be cool but it is I barrel race

In this early chapter book, we meet Andy, whose parents are not together. He has a pet dog, Baxter, at his mother's house, and a pet cat, Simon, at his father's. When his mother goes out of town on business, Andy and Baxter (aka Beast) have to sleep over at his father's. Simon is kept in the basement so that the two pets can be introduced to each other slowly. Simon starts a correspondence with Beast, telling him the proper way to do things. In order to make amends, Beast leaves liver treats along with his notes, but Simon claims not to like these. The two have an adversarial relationship, but slowly warm to each other. Their reactions to a terrible storm help solidify their friendship. Correspondence from other creatures in the area, such as Cheeks the squirrel, Stinky the Skunk, and Bubbles the fish is included as well. Beast's grammar and spelling are not as good as Simon's, but his enthusiasm for his significant life change is good to see. Simon is curmudgeonly and catlike, so is not enjoying being kept in the basement, liver treats or no! The letter format might encourage younger readers to start writing notes and letters of their own, and it would be delightful if they aslo illustrated their epistles. Atteberry's illustrations show a great range of amusing facial expressions on the pets, and are in full color. I love the pops of teal, mauve, and apple green. Beast's spelling difficulties are given an entire glossary at the back of the book as a "Doggy Dictionary", which seems a bit unusual for a beginning reader book. Beginning readers might be interested in correcting Beast's spelling, and the phonetic spellings might be easier for them. Animal stories are always popular with younger readers, and this book will appeal to reader who enjoyed Cronin's Chicken Squad, DiCamillo's Mercy Watson, Elliott's Owl Diaries and Messner's Ranger in Time, as well as this author's own Kayla and King series.

I just love this book. Arrow is the best bunny in the world and he is on a mission for his key's power so the dark rabbits cannot steal it. He meets a dancer named Sara Penfold and she is currently on crutches because she sprained her ankle. Arrow helps cheer her up. Her best friend, Beth, use to go to dance classes with her before she hurt herself. Beth decides to work with another girl, Olya and they audition together. One day, Sara sees a girl in a classroom dancing and she wonders her name. A gym shirt that she left behind said Tamara Blake. Sara tries a plan with Arrow to get Tamara to know her better and talk to her. Tamara says she just moved there and she got bullied at her old school for showing off. She decides to come with Sara to watch Beth and Olya's dance. They end up not making the team, but they decide to make their own team. I really like this book and you guys should read more of Sue Bentley's books. I highly reccomend.

I just LOVE this book! I have many others Thoroughbred Series from Joanna Campbell, It is about an girl name Ashleigh Griffen with an horse name Wonder because at birth, Wonder is so weak and unable to nurse herself so Ashleigh helped her to get through this, I just so impressed about this bond and friendship!

I loved this book!! So Annabelle, the main character has just moved schools and moved in with her mom's boyfriend. When her mom and her mom's boyfriend "Dweeble" surprise her with a puppy and a puppy training manual she get's started training her dog right away. But when she attends her new school the boys there are rude and mean, and she realizes there has to be a way to have them be nice to her. So one day when she's training her puppy she realizes training a dog is as easy as training a boy.
