Let's take care of our new leopard gecko

Titles in the Let's Take Care of ... color-illustrated series introduce younger boys and girls to the fun and responsibility of pet ownership.

Each book tells the story of a boy and girl who get a pet and learn how to care for it.

These charming books emphasize that acquiring a pet is an exciting adventure for children, and it often makes little difference whether the new pet is as tiny as a frog or as large as a hound.

Kids who read these books will share the excitement of the stories' children as an introduction to getting a pet of their own.

A Guidelines section supplements each story with advice and information on pet care that is geared to children's capabilities.

Parents and kids will want to read that section together.
