In four brief chapters, each book superficially describes the physical characteristics, behaviors, birth and development, diet, and care of a popular species selectively bred to be miniature and docile "little pets." Each ends with a very simple anatomical diagram. Large, high-quality stock photographs captioned with additional information illustrate the somewhat choppy texts. "Fun Facts" sections are appended. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Lightning Bolt Books: Little Pets titles: Dwarf Rabbits, Mini Horses, Mini Pigs, and Pygmy Goats.
