1-3Animal Rescue Center series.
Illustrated by
Artful Doodlers.
Each UK-import chapter book opens with a mock website for Animal Magic Rescue Center, owned by Ella Harrison's family. In Foal, the shelter's first ponies join the cats, dogs, rabbits, and goats. Fox describes the tricky balance between healing an injured animal and preserving its ability to return to the wild. A bit saccharine, but with obvious appeal for animal-loving young readers. Review covers these Animal Rescue Center titles: The Homeless Foal and The Injured Fox Kit.
