Captivating Critters
Bookshelf

I remember when I was a child crying over books like Black Beauty and Old Yeller. I followed the adventures of Buck, the dog in Jack London's Call of the Wild, as well as the companion book White Fang. Books about wild animals and books about domestic animals; I loved them all.

Some animal books are fiction, and some are non-fiction and meant to educate. Some of my favorites include All Creatures Great and Small by veterinarian James Herriot, The Jungle Books by Rudyard Kipling. Who can forget Bambi and Gentle Ben?

This bookshelf is devoted to those kinds of books, books for animal lovers of all kinds.

Coast to Coast with a Cat and a Ghost
A  true story by Judy Howard, starring Sportser the cat. She follows that with a fiction book that involves Sportster and two books about service dogs for veterans.
