My First Book of House Pets

This book serves as a great introduction to different kinds of animals that can be pets and some details about the care that they may need. I think it could have benefitted to have a few more details on some pages since some of these animals are given to children as ‘easy pets' even though they have quite specific care needs that often get overlooked, cage/tank size for example look quite small in the illustrations and could give a young reader the wrong impression.

That said, the book does well discussing different types of animals and I appreciate that they pointed out that some animals are shy and some do not like being handled.
