K-3Do You Really Want a Pet? series.
Illustrated by
Katya Longhi.
This series' presentation is playful but offers helpful information about the different animals, how to keep them healthy, and how much human interaction each animal needs. Whimsical illustrations show kids taking care of pets and the animals in silly situations. An appended quiz helps readers determine which pet may be the best fit for them. Reading list, websites. Review covers these Do You Really Want a Pet? titles: Do You Really Want a Guinea Pig?, Do You Really Want a Lizard?, Do You Really Want a Snake?, and Do You Really Want a Turtle?.
