Live animals at home?
Do you have live animals in the house? What kind? What lessons have you and your children learned from them?
We have dogs and cats at home. As we don't have kids in the house, the animals give the old folks a lot of joy with their antics, especially when they want food or want a good scratch.

The story being plotted in a similar environment where the authors is residing makes the book reading very lively and real.
Farmer Beau's and his wife Bamma discover that their kitten have left except one, kailey who had made friends
with fluffy Sammy Bunny. They seemed to get along very well and bring happiness to the couples. The decision to introduce a different kind of animal in the farm by Farmer Beau's caused much anxiety among the animals. But to their surprise they all seemed to be very happily getting along with each other.
This book definitely conveys a very important social message in a fun loving way. Children of different age groups can learn to adopt the social intricacies.
Animals at home can even help children to learn to have close bonding and be compassionate about each other.
Stuffed animals can only be good for the virtual world of reality.
A must read for the parents who want there children to enjoy growing up and learning skills with fun.

I think animals teach children a responsibility that they do not get from chores. My niece was able to get a guinea pig one time after she left our house, because she was able to show her dad how she was able to take care of the pig for a week. She told him everything she researched about guinea pigs and created a schedule and everything.
