Animal Friends: A Global Celebration of Children and Animals

by Maya Ajmera, John D. Ivanko, Global Fund for Children

No matter if your friends have feathers or fur or if they're big or small you need to love and take care of them. Smiling faces from fifteen countries around the world introduce adorable, and sometimes exotic, animal friends. Once again Maya Ajmera and John Ivanko team up to share their vision of teaching youngsters the value of diversity and aiding them to grow into productive, caring citizens of the world. Beautiful and often comical photographs of children and their animal friends from all over the world portray the innocence and joy of childhood and a child's easy appreciation and love of a favorite pet.
