Reviews
Author Eleanor Spicer Rice reveals exactly why our pets do certain things and what those things mean. So many fun facts. You might know why your dog sniffs every single thing on a walk. But do you know why he/she drags his/her butt on the ground? Or why cats do that super-slow blinking thing? Or why parrots dump their food all over the place? All of this, and a lot more, is answered in this fun and funny book, which also features delightful illustrations by NYC's own Rob Wilson. Our biggest take-away: contrary to popular belief, goldfish have excellent memory. --New York Post Memorable facts combined with delightful, full-color spot art will sustain readers' interest. Four insightful interviews with a diverse group of researchers and experts interspersed throughout the text describe surprising breakthroughs and insights and different personal paths to careers in science. The author mixes humor with scientific data, delivering an entertaining and informative guide that will pique readers' interest in learning more about the animals we share our homes with. An engaging, fact-filled book that offers both laugh-out-loud and aha moments. --Kirkus Reviews Pets are a key member of many children's lives, and this jaunty guide helps kids understand their furry, feathery, and scaly companions even better. . . . In a humorous, conversational style, complemented by cartoon spot art, Rice explains such phenomena as why dogs message through pee (and how they align themselves with the north-south axis of the earth's magnetic field to poo), why some cats go gaga for catnip, and why and how a bearded dragon would need to change colors. --Booklist Once you open Your Pets' Secret Lives , you'll be hooked. You'll laugh so hard you snort. You'll also learn the amazing science of what's happening inside your house, outside in your backyard--and inside your pet. Who knew poop was so marvelously complex? And such an indispensable delicacy for your pet rabbit? Entomologist Eleanor Spicer Rice introduces young readers to the fascinating and weird biology and behavior of some of our most popular pets, from cats and canaries to . . . tarantulas. Your Pets' Secret Lives is deeply informative, utterly surprising--and hilarious. Rob Wilson's whimsical, spot-on illustrations are the perfect accompaniment. --Cat Warren, New York Times bestselling author of What the Dog Knows: Scent, Science, and the Amazing Ways Dogs Perceive the World, Memorable facts combined with delightful, full-color spot art will sustain readers' interest.
