Product info
<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Young Readers will meet the animal and human officers of the New York City Mounted Police Unit. Learn how they are trained and cared for and where they live.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Brief text and appealing pictures introduce a variety of working animals. The structure of each book varies appropriately according to the topic: <em>Service Animals </em>devotes one short chapter to 'monkey helpers, ' 'hearing dogs, ' and 'guide horses, ' while <em>Horses on Patrol</em> and <em>Guide Dogs for the Blind</em> focus on a single role. There's just enough information to hook readers, including examples of the work, training methods, and the qualities that make each animal a good choice for its job. Each spread includes a single large photograph; many show the animals engaged in their duties, while some include key tools, such as a military dolphin's camera. VERDICT <strong>An engaging introduction for younger readers.</strong> For more extensive information about the ways animals help humans, consider Enslow's 'Animals at Work' (reviewed below) or Children's Press's -excellent 'Animal Helpers.'--<em>School Library Journal, Series Made Simple</em></p>-- "Journal" (10/26/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br>
