Pets, Vets, and Marty Howard Review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
Pets, Vets, and Marty Howard This book is about a boy named Marty Howard. In the beginning of the book, he gets a job at a veterinary clinic. He thought that was pretty good to have a paying job that he liked at only 12 years old. He sees some interesting things while he is there. Spaying, neutering, castrating, and delivering animal babies are just some of the things he gets to help with as well as watch. One day someone dropped off an expensive guinea pig at the front desk and said his family didn't want him anymore. Marty came to the rescue and took it home. He didn't know what his mother would say, but after some coaxing, she gave in. He gave it to his brother, Nick. Nick named it Gooney. They also found some puppies, which Marty took home also. He never told his parents about this, though. He ended up putting them in a department store window, and feeding and watering them every day until people took them. This was a very interesting book, and I recommend it to anyone who likes pets and animals.
