Wings, claws, and paws, oh my Join the Animal Rescue Friends crew in this graphic novel series of heartwarming tales (and tails) of animal pals that need a little love and care. Welcome to Animal Rescue Friends, where any stray can find a friendly face--furry or otherwise. Each book is a collection of stories of new animals, from dogs and ferrets to cats and birds, as well as the gang of kids ready to lend a helping hand. Perfect for animal-loving kids, this adorable comics series will inspire and uplift. Book 1: Animal Rescue Friends A lonely girl living in the suburbs finds happiness with a stray pit bull; a protective mama ferret and her six kits learn to trust a shelter volunteer; a shy boy stands up for himself with the help of a strong-willed bunny; a cantankerous cat helps to mend a troubled relationship; and the shelter's unofficial mascot eventually finds a home. Book 2: Friends Fur-ever It's the start of a new school year, and the kids are excited about their new club, Oakville Elementary School's Club for Animal Appreciation, Education, and Rehabilitation--even if their new club advisor, Mrs. Wen, doesn't share their enthusiasm. But as they meet a decidedly unusual crew of animals, including a bearded dragon who won't eat, a therapy pig named Truffles, and a prickly porcupine who needs first aid, the kids and adults alike learn that when people help animals, the animals help them right back. Book 3: Learning New Tricks Join Bell, Maddie, Noah, and the rest of the Animal Rescue Friends as they learn to love an affectionate rat named Whiskers, find Sergio the tortoise a forever home that's just his speed, fall for the antics of a chatty parrot with a familiar name, and more Along the way, they make a few new friends and learn that everyone--even insects--can sometimes use a helping hand. Book 4: Finding Home When ARF is flooded with requests for pet-care advice, the kids come up with a great idea to reach lots of people at once: They'll start an animal-care podcast But when the hard work of creating a podcast leads to lots of new and exciting opportunities outside the rescue, the gang finds itself pulled in different directions. The kids tackle big changes--to their friendships, to themselves, and even to ARF itself--in these stories about friendship, responsibility, and cooperation.
