Animal Helpers

"Animal Helpers by the team of author Stepanka Sekaninova and illustrator Misha Bera, is an informative book for children ages 6-10 about the extraordinary bond between humans and animals, which is everlasting -- animals as hard workers, friends, and faithful companions. They have been with us since time immemorial. Some are close to us, others we treat with great respect. And they help us: dogs as guides, elephants as warriors, cats as gods, cheetahs as hunters, pigeons as postmen, horses as therapists, dolphins as rescuers, pigs as truffle hunters, geese as guards, camels as racers, and cows as carriers. To find out more, "Animal Helpers" offers and informative and insightful combination of pictures and stories about how wild animals became helpers and true friends of humans -- making it a welcome and recommended addition to family, elementary school and community library Pets/Wildlife collections for young readers." -Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch

"I learned so many things from this book! For example, dolphins often rescued people from ships that had sunk. There was even a dolphin who helped ships find what they were looking for! I also learned that in ancient Greece, instead of using barbells to exercise, people simply picked up cows! The illustrations in this book were very fun. Overall, I had an awesome time reading this book, and I was surprised a lot!" -Kids Book Buzz
