PreS-Gr. 2. Guinea pigs are popular classroom pets, so many kids will identify with the experience of the students in Ms. B.'s. class. When the children come in on Monday after two days away, Sammy begins squealing in a way that nobody can understand. The children check his fur and try to figure out if he's frightened or ill. During this examination, much interesting information about guinea pigs' habits is inserted into the text. Softly shaded watercolors, set against a background the color of summer corn, make Sammy seem especially endearing and eminently pick-upable. The kids in the class also have the air of real students. A final "facts about guinea pigs" page adds information about the sounds the animals make, their habits, and how to care for them. In a particularly satisfying ending, one of the students comes up with an explanation for Sammy's noisy problem: he's just happy to see the kids after their weekend away. Ilene Cooper |

This charming picture book manages to impart the basics of guinea pig care combined with an engaging storyline and absolutely perfect illustrations. Follow along with class and teacher as they try to figure out why their pet is in distress. Their attempts to aid him provide the little pig with the attention he craves. Readers will fall in love with Sammy and his wonderfully expressive face. An excellent book for youngsters considering acquiring a guinea pig. |
