Purchase options and add-ons

For the child who says, "I want to be a veterinarian when I grow up!" And for any child who wants a gentle behind-the-scenes look at being a veterinarian.

Veterinarians help sick and hurt animals feel better. Did you know that there are many different ways to be a veterinarian? When a father and child bring Gus the dog to his check-up, they learn that there are vets who work with very large animals, vets who work with wild animals—and more.

I Want to Be a Veterinarian is part of a new I Can Read series that introduces young readers to important community helpers. This Level One I Can Read is perfect for children learning to sound out words and sentences. Whether shared at home or in a classroom, the short sentences, familiar words, and simple concepts of Level One books support success for children eager to start reading on their own.

For anyone looking for books about community helpers for kids, the I Can Read My Community books are a great choice. The books are bright and upbeat and feature characters who are diverse in terms of gender, race, age, and body type. Kids ages 3-6 will enjoy finding out more about the people who do so much to help all of our communities.

This book went with a vet play set. She is 6 and just loved that she can read about what it's like to be a veterinarian.

I love that this book doesn’t over complicate and instead makes it easy to understand the different types of vets there are. The story starts with a child who wants to be a vet but is sadly allergic to cats, then the journey begins of showing the different types of veterinarians and their specialty’s (dairy, wildlife, ocean, etc). I love that instead of children feeling like their dreams can’t come true, instead they have other routes to pursue their dream profession! At the end the child is asked which path they choose, but I love that the said he says they don’t yet (which is perfectly okay) but he’s glad he has options!

I thought this book would’ve about what your typical veterinarian does on the job, but it was about all the different kinds of veterinarians there are out there. I probably should’ve read the summary & reviews! It was inexpensive, and the kids enjoyed it.
