All the fun and action of an animal hospital is brought to life when two boys bring an injured duck to see the veterinarian. Jack and Luke also meet and learn about other pets and how they are cared for. The vet also helps a dog who was hurt by a car, showing how emergencies are handled. Animal Hospital is one of the best DK books for children learning to read alone. It is tremendously educational and animal lovers will immediately be drawn into the story. The illustrated "Animal Gallery" adds to the fun.

This is a great book in a great series of early readers. The pictures are (as in all Dorling Kindersly books) wonderful and the text is just right for kids interested in the workings of a vet office. The whole series is wonderful- they never talk down to the children, go smoothly from one level to the next and are full of interesting information laced with a little humor. Our 4 & 6 year olds love them.
