    • Wonderful and Important Lesson for Children

      LOVE the book - the message, the gentle way of relating the animal industry and the sadness of the animals involved. It's a wonderful book for children and is benign enough that friends of mine who won't pick up other animal-issue books will look at this one, if for nothing else than the illustrations which are fabulous. It's a message you just cannot argue with. I'd strongly recommend it for anyone who wants to help their child grow to be a conscious consumer/eater.

    • Such a Wonderful Book!

      I have wanted to order this book since it came out in May, and then found it on Overstock.com for such a reasonable price that I couldn't pass it up! Both my 10 year old and my 22 month old love the book. The story is just great with such a wonderful message to children and adults. The illustration is beautiful. I would recommend this book for anyone! The shipping was very timely (received after only a week and a half!)

  • "
    Declaring that """"All animals deserve the care and protection we give our pets", newcomer Roth takes the vegetarian/vegan cause to young readers. Highly stylized illustrations against white backdrops depict angular caricatures of farm animals with oversize nostrils," as a single-sided narrative compares the existence of several feathered and furred livestock with their counterparts in nature (""""A factory-farmed pig may spend her whole life alone", fattened in a pen so tiny that she won't even be able to turn around.... Pigs need the sight, sound," and touch of one another.... Love is part of their nature."""" Later spreads present barren landscapes in dark hues as the author touches on commercial overfishing and rain forest exploitation. Children may find the heart-tugging descriptions and images (such as the all-gray scene of jungle animals stranded in a charred wasteland or sad chickens """"crammed into cages on factory farms"""") a little overwhelming. Concluding with a list of tips for action around vegetarian/vegan ideals", this book-despite its lack of counterpoint or source material-is sure to raise awareness and questions. Ages 6-10.
