I Want to be a Vet

By Daniel Liebman (2000)







I chose this book because there are about four students in my class that want to be vets when they grow up.  I thought this would be a great book to take in and read to the class.  The teacher that I am working with allows the kids to bring in their Non-Fiction library books and she will read them while waiting for dismissal.  The boys are always bringing in books about cars and motorcycles and the girls always bring in ones about animals.  I think that this book would be great to read during this time.

I found this book to be very informative and would be great for a second grade class.  It talks about how there are many different kinds of vets and what each one of those vets are responsible for.  It also gave information about how it's important that our pets go to the vet because they need their shots just like we need ours.  The book also talked about how vets know what to do with animals that are found in the wild and that they can help all different types of animals.

The pictures in this book were fantastic!  I think the students would really enjoy seeing them as well as learning all about vets.  This book would be great for K-2 because the terminology is something that they could understand and the pictures were age appropriate.
