than you ever have before! The best thing is, you don't even need a pet
to enjoy them. Pets and Their People provides inspiration for kids
aged 7-9 who can't own pets, showing them that we can care for animals
in lots of other ways - from volunteering at animal shelters to leaving
food for them out in the wild. From old favorites such as playful
puppies and cuddly cats, to more unusual pets such as lizards and
snakes, to bugs and hedgehogs in parks and gardens, there are many
fascinating animals to meet.
