"Pet Vet"

My awesome little sister loaned me her copies of the "Pet Vet" books, by Darrel and Sally Odgers, and kept badgering me until I read them. She is always encouraging me to read the same books that she reads. :) Even though I was able to finish two of these books within a couple of hours, they are still a fun read.

Trump is a Jack Russell terrier that acts as an Animal Liaison Officer to his owner and veterinarian,  Dr. Jeanie. Which means that he helps comfort the animals that need to go to the vet. Dr. Jeanie runs the pet vet clinic and these books are all about the different animals that she helps.There are 6 pet vet books, each one is about 90 pages. These books are fun while still being informational. There are little boxes off to the side of the text that will define big words that kids might not understand and it shares detailed information about the different animals in each book.

The Pet Vet series are good for kids in 3rd grade to 6th grade, depending on their reading level. They are completely appropriate and full of fun information. While the main characters are the same throughout the books, the stories are different, so you don't have to read the whole series if you don't want to. Pick this up for the kid in your life and even read it with them if you want. :)  4 out of 5 stars. As always, let me know what you think!

    I love that you are reviewing children's books. I'm always concerned about what my children are reading but I don't always have time to read the book before they do. This is very helpful, thank you!
