(4) K-3 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 potbellied pig is a really cool pet"); it's sometimes a strain. "Far Out!" sidebars give more information. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Far-Out and Unusual Pets titles: Ferrets, Hairless Cats, Hermit Crabs, Hissing Cockroaches, Iguanas, and Potbellied Pigs.
