Review by School Library Journal Review

PreS-This board book can be used to teach preschoolers the proper way to interact with pets. They will learn that it's OK to scratch, nuzzle, or cuddle an animal, but not to squeeze, tease, or pull tails. The book also advises them to watch and listen for warning signals when an animal might be saying, "Hands off." The text is brief and to the point. The broad illustrations use a thick black outline to create characters that are friendly and expressive. Two concluding pages offer further tips for caregivers on how to share the book and encourage children to treat animals kindly.-Martha Topol, Traverse Area District Library, Traverse City, MI (c) Copyright 2010.
