If pets could talk, what would they say? Maybe "Fur is for petting, backs are for scratching, noses are for nuzzling . . . and tails are not for pulling!" Toddlers and pets belong together--as long as toddlers don't chase, grab, squeeze, yank, and tease. In simple words and delightful illustrations, this English-Spanish bilingual board book teaches the basics of kindness to animals: careful handling, awareness, safety, and respect.

A section for adults provides discussion and activity guides in both English and Spanish that reinforce the book's message.
