This simply written book contains ten true stories about amazing animal rescues in the United States. The story about the shark attack is pretty amazing, especially the part about how the dolphin managed to get its cargo safely to shore. There is also a lovely story about a hamster which saved a family from a house fire and one about a dog who saved the life of a diabetic boy. It is an easy read for a middle or upper primary student and makes you realise just how intelligent animals are. My favourite is probably the one about Daisy the cow who saved her owner, Donal Motram, from certain death at the hoofs and horns of a deranged bull.
This blog contains reviews and comments on children's books which I own, have read, and would like to share. I look for books at markets and opportunity shops. They are cleaned up, covered and read. Then I take them to the classroom for students to read. Students can borrow the books at any time. Many books are also from my personal library, especially the Youth Fiction. Students can preview some of them on this blog. Now, I am also on the lookout for great new releases for my grandson Archie.
