Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Therapy Animals
Alice Boynton · 2018
68/100
👎 Skip It
This does exactly what a 24-page leveled reader needs to do: introduce therapy animals clearly and warmly for early elementary students, with language they can handle independently. It won't blow anyone away, but for a school library shelf or an Epic! reading list it earns its place — the Booklist recognition and institutional distribution confirm it clears the quality bar for the format.
