Review for Kids Can Save the Animals! by Ingrid Newkirk
This has got to be the best grade-school children's book ever written!!! Newkirk is funny and attention-keeping, while making her points clear. Many childrens' animal rights books nag on and on about the animals dying, and how they need to be helped and aren't getting the help they need...etc. etc. etc.The problem with that is that it doesn't tell the children HOW to help the animals! Each chapter in Kids Can Save the Animals! first explains the problem, tells about what's needed to solve it, and then tells how the individual child can help. It's a must for each and every child about 7 and up. The same book is written for moms and dads, called "You Can Save the Animals! 101 Things You Can Do" ... Read more
