Book Overview

This Description may be from another edition of this product.

Pets may not have words, but they can communicate. Paying attention to an animal's cues--a joyful bark, a scary growl, a swishing tail--can help a child understand what the animal is saying and what an appropriate response might be. That's part of what this book is about. But mostly it's about showing children how to love pets gently--because pets are for loving, after all. Kids learn that teasing isn't nice, that they can choose to be kind to animals, and that if you want to touch someone else's pet, there's one important rule you should know: Ask the owner first A special section for adults includes ideas for teaching kindness to animals, activities, and discussion starters.

   Tails ARE For Pulling
Bad book. It's just that my daughter was grabbing fur too hard. She learned to pull tails and chase small animals. It's called tail pulling. Every time we read it she would have a bottle of wine. I don't want to give them to anyone else because I don't want to cause the same problems for another family.

   It was a great success.
My 22 month old granddaughter absolutely loves the book. The pictures are colorful and cheerful and the message is very positive. There aren't any pets at her house, but her other grandparents have two dogs and my husband and I have a cat so it was a book that I thought might help her understand that pets have feelings too. She wanted to read it to her several times the day I gave it to her and her mommy says she reads it to her at least once or twice on the days she visits the kitty or puppy. It was a great success, Baz said.

   Great book for teaching
I used this book in a classroom setting to teach my children what they should never do with animals. This book is a good learning tool, too.

   Okay, but...
It's just that he missed the fact it was a board book. Content okay, hoped for a little more. Purchased for 5 years old, turned off by the board format.

   Simple but straight forward
This book is a simple, easy-to-understand how-to book about how to properly treat your pets. We had been having some problems with toddler and our dog and this book was suggested to us. We have read it a few times and my daughter seems to get the point of the descriptions, but I'm not sure it has changed any behavior yet. The pictures are bright and cheery, suitable for ages 3 to 5.

   Great tool for small children
We decided to purchase this book for our daughter to try to teach her to interact with our large and sometimes rambunctious s. We practice petting the animals on the page and also pretend with some of her stuffed animals. This book was a great tool to start the conversation about how to treat animals for a younger child, Raymond said.

   Don’t hesitate to buy this!!
This is a great story for kids to understand pet safety. Clear and concise. My son has autism and we were struggling with him pulling tails, his mom said. The impact of the tax has been huge, he said. I did purchase the older one for my son when he was about 7 years old.

   Worked better than expected
Our daughter is 19 months old and we have three cats and two dogs, her mom said. She's wild, she loves them, but she kept pulling their tails. I read this book to her a total of three times before she would go get the book and say kitty cat no. She hasn't pulled a single tail since. Several weeks later, we'll have the results. She still wants me to read the book, but I don't know we don't pull the tails off the animals.

   Hard to find a good book
It's just that she didn't know what pulling meant. I had to change all the words in the book to hold onto, then things went better, Mrs. Ridgeway said.

   Eww.
The book is sending a powerful message about love. The book was in terrible condition when I opened it. Sticky gunk in between pages, and then beat up corners. Scratch marks are all over the cover and inside the book. This looks like it was used time and time again, he said.
